Bus accident is waiting to happen

I totally agree with Denise Martin of Ettalong (Peninsula News, 24 May 2010) regarding the advertisements on buses covering windows.

This is an accident waiting to happen as people (all ages) have to stand up while bus is in motion to see where their stop is while bus is in sometimes "jerky" motion.

We have enough ads on TV, and in newspapers and junk mail.

This restricts people enjoying their surroundings on a bus trip or local trip; also they look unsightly.

This is dangerous too of a night, having to go to the front to look over the driver's shoulder to see where you are, I know, I have done it.

Sometimes, we go on a bus trip to enjoy the scenery, having a day out, but views are restricted due to this unsightly waste of money.
