I learned that in recent years, the UK has what is called 'Catch The Bus Week'. This year it runs from June 29th through July 5th. In the Eugene/Springfield area, the considerate bus operators hold for a person running to catch the bus. That's what I did back in the day when I was a bus operator. I saw that happen this morning as a young lady ran by me to get to the bus before it left. The kindly driver waited. Bravo!
