Now what is BAD!

Agreed, that is shameful.

It would appear that the driver of a coach load of fat biffers has parked to let said fat biffers out to go watch the pantomime. Thereby obstructing the road and preventing a scheduled bus service from getting past. Instead of closing the doors,and moving the coach somewhere else, possibly resulting in his passengers having to walk maybe thirty yards extra, the driver no doubt thinks it's just fine to bring the rest of town to a grinding halt while he unloads the biffers.

Can't blame the driver entirely though. The sooner he gets shot of them, the sooner he can get to cleaning the coach. And after having that sweaty wobbly mass of 'humanity' aboard, it's gonna take some cleaning...

Oh, and the panto is 'Jack and the Beanstalk'. How am I doing on accuracy, Cliftonite?

It looks like that bus could clearly get past, unless of course he is a pedantic tt (like a lot of them)

My thoughts exactly, get a tank through that gap.

Good job pal. Got out, looked at it, then walked off.

Screw anyone in a wheelchair or pushing a pram - there are two nurseries and 2 primary schools very close by so lots of the latter.

They're both at fault. Building on left side shutdown pub so Virgin van likely visiting one of houses nearby and probably parked last.

If it wasn't for all the people stood about retrieving their bags from under the coach (that is why they're all in the middle of the road right?)!

Could be right, maybe the pic is making a mountain out of a mole hill.

Police should issue a ticket for obstruction, but they won't.

I don't know how someone can park it like that and
1) think it's fine
2) not worry that someone is going to hit it and drive off.

In one article he said quote "for clowns who cant park", says it all

But then look further down on the BBC page and you will see he is quite happy to let a feckin great Alsatian sit on the passenger seat...so clearly he is a knob.

Quote from OP of picture on Facebook:

Thought I should share this wonderful piece of passenger loading. In Durham last Saturday. The correct side of the road contained three empty bus stops but this muppet decided to load his passengers in the middle of the road. I am driving the decker behind already 15 mins late

Wondering if he thought he may get a ticket if he parked on the bus stop, not being a regular type bus, rather than a private hire. Or may be there were buses there when he pulled up, who knows.

Or just a full blown muppet.
