Default TfL use of English

And,staying with buses, there's the old "No standing forward of this
point" notices - Fair enough, if followed with "whilst the vehicle is
in motion", but many aren't.

If you're not allowed to stand by the driver's window, how are you
supposed to ask for, and purchase a ticket? Board the bus, sit on the
floor immediately, and shout up at him/her?
