Seriously this is so annoying!! They walk all over the bloody town yet still won't make the effort to walk a few more steps further up the bus!!

Maybe it is easier for them to get on and off the bus.

I see your point, but its probally easier for them to get on and off without having to walk all the way to the back of the bus. Imagine if your in the back of the bus with an old guy and both of you have to get off at the same stop, but the old guy is in front of you then you'll be really annoyed because he is walking really slow to get off. The old people will never win with the way you think!!!!

when they are walking in town they're probably using a walking stick, the ground under them is not moving at 30mph and suddenly braking to a quick halt while they squeeze through a thin alley. so i was guessing they will hold up much better in town than walking through a bus. those seats were put for a reason by people who'd probably thought long and hard about the safety of old people so it's not rocket science that they should sit at the front

That is where the reserved seats are. some have trouble with their balance. The back of the bus is bumpy and uncomfortable hot in the summer. There is often a step to negotiate and also they might have to sir next to selfish arrogant git like you

Have you thought how difficult it is for someone unsteady on their feet to walk up and down a bus that is being driven by a wannabe rally driver. Have you seen the way bus drivers have two throttle positions and on - off brakes?

Probably because it's easier for them to get off the bus. It's more difficult for them to walk when the bus is moving, so they sit up front to avoid that.

It's difficult for them to get off fast if when the bus stops so they like being near the door. It's a matter of speed not distance.

Jay, some older people have a harder time than younger people getting up so they have to be at the front of the bus so they wont get run over by the crowd.

Cause the bus moves and they lose balance easier so it is more convenient and safe for them to sit near the front of the bus.

It's easier to get off, in case the bus gets full, they might miss their stop because some bus drivers are thick ignorant.
