stoots1975's Review of Magic Bus
24th Jul 2004
Overall Rating
- Value for money
What good points?? This company is owned by Stagecoach
Bad Points
Stagecoach employ the most dangerous drivers to drive these buses.. Where most of them got their PCV licences from I really dont know.. (some people have suggested a lucky bag!)
General Comments
I wouldn't use any of the Stagecoach buses because the drivers are ignorant of other road users, cheeky towards passengers, don't obey the rules and regulations of the highway code (ie speeding etc), and worst of all don't know the first thing about the rules of public transport. This company is used all over Britain to drive competitors of Stagecoach off the road, by dropping fares to such a level that the smaller companies cannot make a profit, thus making them remove their service. The point is that this is a company that does all of Stagecoach's dirty work for them, and if caught doing anything illegal, it doesn't affect Stagecoach, even though Magic Bus is owned by them. (Different operators licence, mostly registered to the same addresses as Stagecoach but with a different board of directors)
