Subject: My OIA request about bus interchange incidents
To Whom it may concern
It is disappointing to see The Press have taken my OIA request and blown
it out of proportion and have been very ignorant about the facts.
I was impressed with your response to my request, it doesn't seem that bad
at all
They say drivers back blindly, they don't acknowledge that there are
cameras and alot of other stuff.
I suggest ECan make a video for the public, Showing what it's like from a
drivers perspective, and demonstrate all of the safety systems in place to
bust all the misinformation out there.
Thanks
