Except in busy areas (think Oxford St) where it would sail past
because it didn't see your signal. I much prefer the German approach
of "stop if someone is waiting" - if you're the only one there and it
isn't your bus just step back and shake your head to signal "no need
to stop".

I believe this is now the official London way.
