I do not work for any bus company but my job is connected with the bus industry and I have contact with London's bus garages and companies on a daily basis.

The problem nowadays is privatisation.

Back in the 70's and 80's bus driver wages were competitive and as a result the companies could pick and choose who they employed. The PSV (now PCV) driving test was taken by ministry officials and was quite difficult to pass.

Nowadays there is an industry shortage of 30,000 drivers and as long as you can reach the pedals.................

In my opinion there is very little professionalism on the road and the higher accident rate is of no surprise.
