After a full day’s work from eight to four, I boarded the number 24 bus into Birmingham city centre, never imagining that this ride would change how I view public transport forever. I took a seat at the back on the lower deck. I avoid the upper level, fearing it’s too far from the driver, but since it was still daylight, I felt reasonably safe.
