Thus the public might feel that a more accurate clause was:

But the author sees:

I agree its ambiguous, but the former is surely intended.

But what happens if you have to catch a 3rd bus because the 2nd one is
terminated early?Â*Â*Â* A couple of times recently on a bus that I've been
using the driver has had instructions sent in by radio to stop his
service prematurely, perhaps because of congestion or too many of the
same route number in a convoy.Â* So I've had to get off and get on
another bus that is following the same route.Â* This doesn't cause me
more than mild annoyance as I have a bus pass, but if you are using
Oyster would this be included in the 2nd-bus-within-an-hour concession,
and if so how does the system handle it?


Ask for a continue ticket from the first bus, usually he will issue one
ticket that covers all the transferring passengers.
