I like helping strangers & today I managed to do just that. What’s even better is that I helped by using my in-depth knowledge of transport real-time information systems!!! See my job is helpful in the real world after all! Okay, so basically I stood at the bus stop and told a (pregnant) woman all about the magical system that is Edinburgh’s “My Bus Tracker“. She seemed pretty impressed and you never know she might find the information very helpful. I’m imagining her going into labour, no cars or ambulance in sight, so she gets on the Bus Tracker website and voilà, she gets to the hospital in minutes…

I wonder what transport knowledge I can impart onto the general public tomorrow?
