Article in Mail about a bus driver who stopped outside a police
station to report two passengers smoking crack cocaine on the bus -
police didn't have anyone available, told to ring 999!
Full story:

Still, there is always the CCTV - they can catch them later...


Perhaps not, East London Bus Group refused to release CCTV of the men
smoking on board, citing data protection laws.


It wouldn't be evidence of this crime anyway they
could claim that they were smoking something
else and there is (now) no proof otherwise.

Apart from a bus full of witnesses, no


Who are all fully in trained in knowing what crack
is?

They can get them for smoking on the bus sure,
but there is no allowable evidence that what they
were smoking is also illegal.
