The above image shows what the average bus stop looks like in rural areas. Most bus stops are on busy roads where the speed limit can reach 60-70mph. This image was taken on a 40mph stretch of road. As you can see there are no points to cross the road and nothing to channel the flow of passengers as they leave the bus. It is also a very busy road with large commercial vehicles using the road. There is nothing to prevent traffic from speeding past the bus while it is stopped, and also there are also driveways situated near the bus stop.
