Default Local/Express bus routes

So what should London do instead? I supplied the answer a few weeks ago:
run untimetabled (but frequent) routemasters in addition to the regular
service! With drivers instructed to go as fast as they safely and
comfortably can, the RMs would regain their reputation for being fast,
and their lack of accessibility would not be a problem as the entire
route would still be serviced by low floor buses.


Surely, though, that's one of the main reeasons they've taken the RMs off
the roads - because if they accelerate too fast there's a risk people will
fall out.
