@stuartyeates That too. Though my friend argued that there are likely cameras inside the bus, so it may be possible to do something after the fact but the presence of another person helps right in the moment.

@AimeeMaroux @stuartyeates It's a psychological deterrent, right? A potential assailant 👉🏼doesn't know👈🏼 whether the bus driver would intervene or not. 🤷🏻♂️

@AimeeMaroux @stuartyeates It probably isn't enough, but there are vague plans for live video feeds to ops centres, (like CCTV) of both internal and external views. In Europe it looks like the ops centre staff have to be qualified bus drivers, which makes a sort of sense. The question then becomes 'what is the remote bus driver going to do?' - and that's even more vague and troubling.
