Hi all,
I've just travelled from Kensal Rise to Wandsworth on an Optare Metrodecker on the TfL route 28.
Throughout the journey, the bus braked incredibly heavily multiple times, almost sending me flying into the window. The first time, I'd assumed an animal or such had run out into the road, but it continued to happen a handful of times afterwards.
After the first time, the driver did also pull over and restart the bus.
It felt almost like an "emergency brake" of sorts - I don't know if such a function exists.
Just curious as to what this may have been? Is this a common occurrence on Optare Metrodeckers?
Thanks.
