There are some simple rules for getting on that must be observed by all passengers.

Be nice.
You're not the only person catching this bus, so be nice and show some respect to your driver and fellow passengers.

No eating or drinking.
That means no half-drunk cans of beer, take-away cups of coffee or half eaten kebabs. You'll be asked to dispose of any food or drink before boarding.

No smoking.
It's been a rule on public transport forever. This bus is no exception.

No dancing in the aisles.
Especially the Macarena and Birdy Dance. It doesn't matter how much you've had to drink, there's just no excuse.
