Default Buses blocking the road

Why not move bus routes to minor roads?


Because they'd block them completely.


And why can't other drivers actually *use* bus lanes when available?



Because at those hours, the bus lane is invariably blocked by parked
cars.


Which is fine, if parking is allowed at those hours.

However, I often find that the bus lane is clear and empty.

This however, also encourages overtaking in the left, which is
fundamentally dangerous.
