WHILE the comparatively new articulated buses may have their advantages, I suggest they should be boldly marked "Long Vehicle" at the rear.

When at a stop they often give the impression to following traffic of being of normal bus length which can create a serious safety hazard for passing vehicles if the bus begins to move.

A clear rear marking would prevent such a situation.
