THE other day, I went from Hereford to Kingstone on the 449 bus.
The adult single fare was £4.30.
If I’d used my car instead, at current pump prices, the fuel for those seven miles would have cost about £1.21.
Where is the incentive for people to be greener and leave their cars at home?

It also strikes me that people who can’t afford a car or cannot drive are being unfairly stung by costs like this.
