    Why is an announcement even needed? You're on a bus - it is going to move. What's next, hold on the bus is moving?

      I don’t blame you for thinking thatk but apparently 1000 people die every year because buses accelerate and brake too fast, according to TfL an announcement could stop that, dont know how
