Are we short staffed or short stuffed? How robust are current recruitment, screening, and performance monitoring processes for those entrusted with lives daily? Are we short staffed or critically "short stuffed" by a system that fails to adequately find, train, and support? #visionzeronow #BusSafety @tfl@MayorofLondon@SebDance@H_S_E@transportgovuk@Heidi_Labour@metpoliceuk @Londonbuswatch #adasheartbeat #visionzeronow
Are we scared of technology? As Europe embraces cutting-edge vehicle safety technology, why does London seemingly lag behind on critical innovations like Intelligent Speed Assistance and Autonomous Emergency Braking? Is this a practical barrier, or a deeper reluctance to harness life-saving technology? @tfl@MayorofLondon@SebDance@H_S_E@transportgovuk@Heidi_Labour@metpoliceuk @Londonbuswatch #adasheartbeat #visionzeronow
Boxticking jobs Are pre-shift fitness checks for London's bus drivers merely a 'boxticking job' that falls short of ensuring true fitness to drive? When lives are on the line, what real mechanisms ensure drivers are genuinely ready for the road, and who truly bears the responsibility? @tfl@MayorofLondon@SebDance@H_S_E@transportgovuk@Heidi_Labour@metpoliceuk @Londonbuswatch #adasheartbeat #visionzeronow
Is saving lives is not saving money? • Questioning Tweet: Given the clear societal value of preventing road casualties, why does London hesitate to fully implement drug and alcohol testing for all bus drivers from recruitment? Is saving lives truly not saving money, or is there a deeper resistance to comprehensive safety measures and the cost of full scope yearly drug testing? @tfl@MayorofLondon@SebDance@H_S_E@transportgovuk@Heidi_Labour@metpoliceuk @Londonbuswatch #adasheartbeat #visionzeronow
Fatıque Crisis: London's roads are getting slower with widespread 20mph limits, yet bus drivers still report a "culture of fear" to admit fatigue. How are these contrasting policies impacting driver well-being, and who is truly accountable for ensuring drivers are rested and safe on our complex streets, rather than perpetuating a fatigue crisis? @tfl@MayorofLondon@SebDance@H_S_E@transportgovuk@Heidi_Labour@metpoliceuk @Londonbuswatch #adasheartbeat #visionzeronow
Where are we failing @TFL? London's Vision Zero goal: zero road deaths by 2041. Ambitious, but is the city hitting its stride, or falling behind? What's the real story? #visionzeronow
More people were killed on or by buses in London in 2024 than any year since 2009. That's the outcome of London's "institutionally unsafe" franchising model, which the Government wants to roll out across the country. Support the Bus Drivers Bill of Rights! https://t.co/UJNU3cKfis
