Does anybody remember 'Franny' ? She didn't drive the bus but she was always cadging lifts and knew all the drivers. She used to stand in front of the main stand hurling abuse at all and sundry with a fag hanging out of her mouth. A proper character.

Franny Hall. A toothless legend and a bus drivers 'groupie'. A nightmare to deal with when she'd had a good drink.

That's the question the female driver will be thumbscrewed about. In this situation, the individual always gets the blame, but the bus company has to share (or own) the responsibility because whilst staff are only human and can make mistakes, more often than not the error comes about through systems failure - or lack of training.

Another factor is the amount of diversion signs around our streets. If I were a visitor to Rochdale and didn't know the road layout, I'd be driving round in bloody circles for hours.

Definitely Whitworth based. A kind offer of a lift home usually resulted in a kind offer of an 'oral reward' for said kind offer.

You're thinking of a different legend.

Lady.driver was on her first week unsupervised reportedly.

There's a video on facebook of the immediate aftermath, not nice at all for some passengers, particulary a young man and couple of pensioners.

The lass driver is seen collecting the cash from the floor of her cab while people are getting off the bus, a shock action if ever there was one. As in, she was in shock, not, it is shocking

Hilarious that, I know one of the injured passenger's. Lucky to have got off the bus with minor injuries and not serious injuries or worse.
