It would be great if we could all send a letter to our MPs , asking them to ensure the UK government doesn't miss this crucial chance. The European Parliament is proposing new rights for disabled passengers using buses and coaches which could significantly improve the journey experienced by bus passengers here in the UK. If the proposals are accepted they would ensure: . Accessible information (e.g. accessible timetables or information about delays); . Mandatory disability awareness training for all bus drivers and terminal staff. Everything can be found and done online through the RNIB website which will send it to the correct MP if the person fills in their postcode. http://www.rnib.org.uk/getinvolved/campaign/gettingaround/Pages/passenger_rights.aspx
