I've noticed some independent operators in Merseyside displaying signs on saying the have cameras on their buses and they talk about fale claims such as whiplash. Those passengers on those buses seem to stay sat down until the bus has actually stopped.

I always see that the two big operators Arriva and Stagecoach's passengers along with Halton and WBT dispaying signs to stay seated until the bus has stopped but they can drive past the bus stop when the bell has been pressed. I know that theres faults but if you think of the elderly or frail they are extremely vulnerable to falls. If they fell, who's fault is that?

Again though I see it time and time again where an elderly person will press the bell but remain seated, as the driver approaches the stop they will check the mirror, see nobody stood there and just carry on.
