I FEEL I must put pen to paper and hopefully prevent more elderly people falling on buses.

I have just found out that drivers do not have to wait until we sit down before they start the bus.

To say I was shocked about that is putting it mildly, I now request that they do not start the bus until I sit down.

If more people made the same request it would save a lot of pain.

Yes I am elderly and yes I had a fall.
