You may want to remove the plates from the pictures (just whiten them up), as a lot don't like their plates being posted in public.

Many thanks!

There's a big thread about it here somewhere, can't be bothered finding it lol. Bus lanes in city are seen as fine, but it's the motorway ones which are unclear.

**TOTO** · 29th October 2008, 09:46

You are allowed to use all bus lanes in the city but not allowed to use bus lanes on the motorway.

todd, everytime i read one of your posts i look at your avatar and think that you are angry!!! this then affects my interpretation of your post as one filled with agression and intent to commit murder.....guess it gives you more credibility......

It was the nor western, Now ill tell the story
I do this every day... usually stand up on the pegs so I can look for cop's i didnt yesterday then right there in front of a truck was a cop.
No time to duck back in so i just cruised past pretending I handnt done nothing wrong ( this worked a few times in the past )

Of course I got pulled up , He ask's me are you allowed to ride in bus lanes I said "yup" with a big grin . he said ok got your license so I handed it over. he went back to the car and was on the radio asking them and they came back and said yes he is allowed. I got let of and told to sort uot my number plate ;-)

I did my license test last week and guy told me same thing ( i didn't believe him )

To the cops that cruise these threads any idea if we allowed or not?
