BMTA Are Applying Clear Regulations For Service Users

The main operator of public transit buses within the Greater Bangkok area, BMTA, have applied easy-to-follow regulations for the public. Bus drivers will label a message on the front mirror of the bus indicating the availability of seats. In the case of it being full, fare collectors will hold up a sign to show civilians to wait for the next available bus.
