Aren’t they GPS synchronized where you are? Most of the busses I’ve been in have a central time service.
The ones in the buses I use seems to be.
I mean, they already track the bus using mobile network and GPS, why not sync the clock at the same time…
I should clarify that it is the red LED clock that is often incorrect. The LCD displays are usually sync.
The orange-red LED display used to display the next stop also display the time in between and it’s in sync…
I’m literally sitting in a coach as I read this. I jusst checked, and the time is correct.
Swiss here. They are correct. Always.
I saw digital clocks in NYC and Philly public transit. They’re accurate enough to be within 2 minutes of the cell network time.
It’s good enough, I guess.
On coaches, they often aren’t unless they have some kinda centralised display system that displays stops.
In local public transport busses, they usually are in my experience.
I think the deciding point is whether the bus has a computerised display/pa system. If the driver has to set it manually through some archaic process, it’s bound to be forgotten.
The TV never works either
