Worth a thousand SMSs
They say a picture is worth a thousand words.
If the ADT can't find any route buses issuing clouds of black smoke, the photo on the front page of the September 16 edition of The Times accompanying the article on the public trans-port tender seems to prove otherwise.
A number 60 bus is clearly issuing a cloud of black smoke right in front of a police car. Perhaps the ADT should carry out their SMS emission alert programme via the pictures in The Times - they seem to be doing so much better.

the reason the ADT claim not to find any route buses issuing clouds of black smoke,
is because every time the buses are taken for testing they have the correct fuel put into them.
ADT need to go out on the road and test the buses while they are in service.

I hope none of the ADT personnel hold shares in buses.

ADT imagine that the public are ABSOLUTE MORONS if they think they can fool us into believing that none of the buses tested exceeded the allowable emissions limits . . . where are these jokers during the day when we have to put up with these road bandits and their foul, smoke-spewing, pieces of junk???
If ADT took this emissions business even half as seriously as it merits, more than half the local buses AND coaches would have to be taken off the road within less than a week ! ! !
