In the UK, bus journeys are just boring and simply a necessity This public means of transportation

moving very quickly in the bus lanes, and do not have to pay to park the car After all, though,
taking the bus is just a necessary and tedious part of life: you board the bus, pay the driver and sit
down or find a place to stand Very boring
In Latin America, however, bus trips can be very lively For a start, long-distance buses put on
films so that you have entertainment for at least some of the journey Naturally, local transport does not show films but drivers usually switch on the radio and that can be a great way to hear new songsand new styles of music Therefore, taking the bus doesn’t sound like fun but it is much more
exciting than any UK bus journey

9 a.m to 10 a.m and between 3 p.m to 4 p.m also witnesses long lines of vehicles, mainly
motorbikes When it rains, the traffic jam gets more terrible Taxis are extremely hard to catch or wave during the downpour

In Latin America, however, bus trips can be very lively For a start, long-distance buses put on films
so that you have entertainment for at least some of the journey Naturally, local transport does not show films but drivers usually switch on the radio and that can be a great way to hear new songs and new styles of music Therefore, taking the bus doesn’t sound like fun but it is much more exciting than any UK bus journey
