Cheap bus fares to continue after the Olympics, but we'd rather pay a little more for safer buses

Zhou Zhengyu, deputy director of the Beijing municipal committee of communications announced in a recent press conference that the cheap bus fares that Beijingers have been enjoying during the Olympics will continue after the games.

We are all in support of more public transport to save the environment and to ease traffic congestion, but we are noticing a disturbing trend in relation to buses in the last month. See if you too can spot the trend.
