Maybe someone in management is getting the 10 and 21 mixed up:

Although interesting to read the driver's account of how the decker ended up on that route.
- Driver repeatedly reports braking issue with normal bus - ignored
- Driver reports near miss with normal bus due to faulty brakes - driver allocated a decker next day
- Driver says she doesn't want to take a decker out as it's unsuitable for the route - ignored.
- Arriva are a decker down and are handed a £70,000 bill by Network Rail for their bus hitting a railway bridge - management take notice!
