This wasn't about the number of buggies. Hers was the only one. The Health and Safety spokesperson said there is no reason why such buggies should not be transported by bus. In fact he got quite uptight about that particular model of bus being designed for that very purpose.

I do agree that when the buggy/wheelchair area is full then they shouldn't try to cram more on because it is difficult trying to get past them. I had a struggle one day and the mother tutted at me as if it was my fault for having shopping bags.

Walking is all very well if it's within walking distance but if it's several miles then the mother probably needs to get home quicker.
