Buses:

1) Some of the older buses in Canberra have a little placard on the side. "Children are not permitted to sit while adults are standing." Strikes me as weird. I feel that I am better equipped to stand on a bus than a child is.

2) Riding a bus this afternoon, one of the outside panels (it looked like the door to a luggage compartment on a coach, if that makes sense) flew up. While driving 80 km/hr, the driver reached out the window and shoved the thing back into place. I was happy to be getting off at the next stop.
