Default Better by mouse or chicken

The number 38 from Clapton Pond to Victoria bus station travelled at an
average speed of just 6.4mph during morning journeys. A mouse typically
runs at 8mph, and a chicken at 9mph.

Transport for London last week released speed data for every one of the
hundreds of London buses under its control.

The people talking about there being many stops are on the money there
- in Germany urban bus stops are typically around 1km apart; the UK
usual is 500m at most.
