bus driver, coach driver - neither of which get a salary significantly

Both of which need more skill than a tube driver.


Responsibility perhaps?...


A bus/coach crash can kill a lot more people than a tube even if they
kill all the tube trains passengers.

But the bit you miss is there are a LOT more of them!..

Yes there are a lot more buses.
They also have far more unpredictable events to deal with.


Any idea how may PAX a tube train carries at all?..

Does it compare with 10000+ at a match?
It certainly didn't when I was a student in London.


Just think about a collision between a bus and a tanker near a football
ground that's emptying out.


Why stop there what about whatever anything;!..

Well there are usually a lot of buses at football grounds so the chances
of an accident are higher.


How many have died because or Tube crashes over time excluding 7/7
compared with the carnage on the roads?..

A lot less which goes to show the drivers have less responsibility
because accidents don't happen very often.



So its not responsibility.
