Crossing the Road after Disembarking from the Bus

Crossing the road after getting off a bus can sometimes be very difficult, especially for children and the elderly. There are good and bad crossings near and around bus stops. This video bellow shows a very difficult bus stop to reach. It is on a duel carriageway, with no crossings nearby. The duel carriage is a main road and can become extremely busy at peak times. This bus stop should really be re positioned as it is a safety hazard. In the video it take approximately 1 minute for the passenger to cross the road after getting off the bus, if you think this could be a school child, and school children are not wanting to wait about, they will try and dash across the road as soon as the can, this could result in a serious accident or could even be fatal.
