An idiot's guide has been produced for people who have forgotten how to catch a bus.

Stagecoach say they created the manual because people are now so reliant on cars.

The guide begins reassuringly with: "Using the bus could not be easier."

Passengers should "first of all decide on what bus you need" and once the right bus has been spotted, with the "number and destination on the front", one should then "signal for the driver to stop".

The guide continues: "Wait until the bus is stopped and the doors are fully opened and step on board.

"When you want to get off, press the bell once. For your safety we recommend you remain seated until the bus has arrived at the stop."

A spokesman for Stagecoach said research had shown many members of the public no longer knew how to use public transport.

Steven Stewart said: "If we look back 30 or 40 years, catching a bus was part of our daily routine from when we were children.

"Our guide is not designed to be patronising, it's just answering questions that cause fear and uncertainty when people are thinking of getting a bus."

Don't panic if you notice there's no bus driver.
