  • On some buses there may be different coloured buttons with different symbols. The symbol might be a pram, a wheelchair, a person with a cane or an eye.
  • If you press one of these buttons, the driver will pay closer attention when you are getting off. It makes no difference which button you push if you want the bus to stop. When you press one of the buttons, check to see that the sign reading "STANNAR" (stop) is lit at the front of the bus. If it does not light up, press again.
  • You can always ask the driver for help if you are not sure where or when you should get off.
