Travelling by Bus in London
 

Bus Lanes


Present on roads throughout the UK, including on part of the M4, the bus lane is designed to infuriate passengers by making them think the bus will simply be able to speed along without a care in the world. However, cyclists, parked cars, taxis, traffic lights, wide vehicles in other lanes and even other buses will be present to thwart your hopes of a speedy journey. Besides, most buses can't do more than about 35mph.
