how useful would a smart phone app that shows exactly where the bus you want to catch is, that way you can set off to the stop knowing you will only be there a minute or two before it arrives.
Or how about a mechanism for registering for a bus journey in advance so the bus companies have a way of calculating what size of bus to use for most efficient operation.
I rarely use buses as they are expensive and not very convenient ( 3 quid from Manchester road near Haworth art gallery into town for Julie and Siobhan the other week is disgusting IMHO ) if this made them more convienient and cheaper then it can't be a bad thing.

Back in the 20th century we had all this, a kind of mobile GPS system that made the buses run on time....they were called Inspectors
