66972 - KX05 AOC: Charles Street, Leicester, 19/02/2013
A route number fashioned out of ticket roll substitutes for failed destination equipment on this Leicester allocated Wright bodied Volvo B7RLE. The vehicle has had defective destination display equipment for a number of days.
A destination display is one of the most important, and yet basic, ways in which a bus operator advertises its services to passengers or customers. The fact that the home made route number is in the swept area of the wipers creates culpability issues for both the driver and the company.
Should VOSA carry out bus service reliability and compliance monitoring, the journeys that this bus is operating will be recorded as "not having been seen", basically the same as not having run. This can lead to financial penalties being imposed on the operator.
