| Sorry about the OT posting, but I know a few French residents post here

| The EU have brought in another stupid regulation that buses traveling
| over 30 miles must stop at 30 miles, remove all passengers then can
| reload and resume their journey. One very negative effect of this is
| that in Wales hitherto community buses that travel over 30 miles have
| shortened their journeys by using main roads and bypasses, as a result a
| number of small communities no longer have a bus service.
| Does this rule applied in France?

| First I've heard about it. Sounds more like a posting for
| 1st of April to me :-)

| No its true and causing problems in Cornwall too, people are having to
| buy three separate tickets for one jurney and get off the bus, they then
| get straight back on with the same driver and continue - daft

But damn-all to do with the EU ....

Well perhaps not, though I do think they could be a lot clearer what they
intend measures to do and be much clearer about what is not meant or
intended. But in this case I smell a bus company rat, they seem to have
used a minor regulation to get three fares instead on one out of people!
