Re: link..bendy bus cop shop
i think this was a great idea and I commend them for doing this, but is this not verging on entrapment? It must be a fine line at any rate.

Not really, they didn't ask anyone to chuck a brick at the bus!

Re: link..bendy bus cop shop
Lothian Buses used to do it now and then a few years ago, but Im not sure they do it now. Undercover cops, spare bus and lots of cameras in some of Edinburgh's less savoury schemes.
They really should do this in Glasgow, if the Glasgow operation accounts for more than half the replacement glass costs and there's a well documented vandalism problem why isnt it happening in Glasgow? People have been injured by this scummy lowlife and what do First do? Some games of football and never any threats of withdrawing services due to vandalism. Is it not until someone is killed before something is properly done about it?
