SIR – I’m sending a letter to you in protest as I have just witnessed the most stupid act of all times.

Midland Red, LMS, Red Diamond, Yarrantons and Astons: all these buses park for five to 10 minutes in Angel Place, for a short break. This has been a regular occurrence for more years than I can remember.

On Thursday, October 29, the Astons driver pulled in as usual, then visited the toilet. As I was there I timed him to the second, exactly two minutes, 36 seconds. As soon as he went into the toilets, a traffic warden came over and slapped a ticket on the bus.

Why treat one with intimidation and not the others?

This is downright disgraceful to say the least.
