Just today, I noticed a Streetlite on an X3A, having a rear blind OOA.
I think it was 6028, but it was displaying 'Easington Lane' earlier.
edit: It appears underline doesn't work. Either way, the 'Easing' part of Easington, was underlined.

Most of Travelsure's vehicles weren't displaying destinations on Wednesday, just a board in the window. Only saw one working.
(31 Dec 2015, 2:24 pm)Adrian It'll be interesting to see if any depots send non-compliant vehicles out on the 2nd. If the worst comes to the worst, do they send a bus with a knackered rear destination out, or just bite the bullet and record the lost mileage?
Have you been round the depots to do an audit, Dan? I'd noticed a MAN yesterday, where the illumination on the front flipdot wasn't working. That wouldn't be 'ready', would it?

(01 Jan 2016, 9:16 pm)citaro5284 I cannot remember if the number on the nearside comes under a 'regulation' or 'best practice'.
If its under best practice, then no, but if it is a regulation, then possible, but I doubt they will get fined (or any other operator) in the first instance.

(01 Jan 2016, 9:19 pm)LeeCalder I believe it says that the number 'should' be on the nearside.

(01 Jan 2016, 9:17 pm)He Adrian DVSA should be policing it through spot checks. Not sure whether this will also be covered as part of an MOT going forward though?
It's always going to be a case that people will report it too, so I can't see any operators running the risk.

(01 Jan 2016, 9:22 pm)Adrian I wonder how Trent Barton will get away with not displaying a route number at all?
