I'd say the main reason for those buttons would be being able to get off the bus at the desired stop, since the bus won't stop if you don't press it. The main reason you stated is an afterthought or side effect at best..
To be honest I get a much higher sense of awkwardness than control from the buttons, especially when you have to push through 5 people just to press it (even better when the button is broken) But they _do_ make the bus go faster since it doesn't have to stop everywhere, so I'll take the awkwardness

The screen is linked to a tracker on the bus actually. So you are getting realtime updates, which is why if the bus had been delayed or cancelled it shows up, when the static board on the stop doesn't change... You can also search each stop online for realtime updates. I don't know where you are getting your information but it's not just for show... Also the buses don't stop at every stop, on request stops, a passenger has to push the button or someone has to be waiting at the stop.
Nowadays (at least in London) the busses don't stop at most compulsory stops. A passenger has to press the button, or someone waiting at the stop has to hail the bus.
What? None of this makes any sense. The button is there to let the driver know the bus stop is needed, it was discovered that there was high amounts of fare evasion when they used multiple doors (yes they did this) and the timetables are directly connected to iBus sooo.... Half if these points are stupid
3. In most of the Poland you have gps signal from every bus, so apps can calculate it automatically. The time isn't different on ony of those. The jams are the reason for wrong times.
I dont know about the UK, but the buttons in point 3 are highly functional here in Turkey/Istanbul. It makes it so that the driver knows where to stop, or rather where no to stop. This way drivers can skip stations with no passengers leaving or entering the bus, and be faster overall
Same for Malaysia, at least a free bus service does that Edit : or you could use their mobile app to set where you're leaving. I have never done that though.
where i'm from, people ALWAYS enter the bus from the back. those who enter from the front, they do that because they need to buy a bus ticket, everyone else has bus pass of sorts. and they just want to get a seat on the bus asap. the central bus stop is almost always gonna be the busiest
In Moscow we can enter and exit wherever and every exit/entery has validator Also we can't buy tickets from the driver, you just use debit card to pay directly on validator
We've had 2 types of buses with 3 door entry/exit (New Routemaster, Citaro G) and all it resulted in is high rates of fair dodging. I don't know what he's on about with the stop button thing, the driver will not stop if you have not pressed the bell unless it is early.
2nd and 3rd are false. Drivers will skip bus stops unless they are occupied or you explicitly tell them to stop via button press. Contactless payments were only widespread after 2010s. Before that you asked the driver for specific fare with a fixed destination. These psychology explanations are made up.
in hungary, there are no ads inside the bus and the stop button is frequently used because the bus doesn't stop if there's noone waiting at the stop or pressing the button
In most places in Britain outside of London busses only have one set of doors and when you exit you thank the driver, you can often tell who is a Londoner if they donât thank the driver.
as a londoner, the actual reason why we get on from the front only is because after the modern version of the vintage double decker buses came out + we had front, middle AND back doors open for convenience- people started evading the bus fare even though there were scanners at the back, middle and front of the bus inside LOOOOOL. from there, they noticed this and after 2 years, it became a rule to only enter through the front and exit from the middle and back (if the bus youâre on had a back door)on all buses. they used fines as a deterrent if you were caught and even started to get ticket officers on the bus with this mad technological scanner that would tell them if your card had a recent transaction on that bus for the fare. serves TFL for upping their fares every year to stupid amounts though ÂŻ\_(ă)_/ÂŻ
Here in Romania we get on and off from all doors if they would force us to enter from one dor and get off from another door it would be Chaos since MANY people use the public transport
In switzerland you can enter the bus where the driver is and (usually) in the middle and in the back. Sometines they have 4 entries. Always on the left side. But out of 100 maybe 5 enter the bus where the driver is.
You should probably still press it if your system runs on request stops. Otherwise, donât go complaining to the driver if your bus blows past your stop.
i can see the dirt on piccadilly line seats also the tube seats are mostly prettier than on buses (except the boring ahh district/metropolitan/h&c/circle line seats)

I mainly disagree. Most bus seats are now plain (at least to the places I've been around the uk), but i understand your point The busses I've been in only have one door, which is both the entrance and exit. Your point would still stand here. The stopping button is for stopping - that's it. It has nothing to do with control but instead efficiency. Ads in the uk are usually government ads or bus ads which are found inside the bus. Outside ads can be anything, tbh. And timetables are just timetables.
