Northern Beaches Police crack down on bus safety
Police have begun to crack down on the spate of drunken violence afflicting Northern Beaches buses following a crisis meeting with the RTBU and State Transit.
Due to complaints of widespread hooliganism, drinking on public transport, and violent behaviour towards bus drivers and commuters, police are now undertaking more plainclothes patrols, arresting troublesome youths, and guarding busy late night buses.
These extra patrols and the resulting arrests are a big win for bus drivers and commuters, who can now feel safer on late night buses.
