Don't forget most drivers with 20 years or less driving experience (or are ex Northwestern or Liverline drivers as they never had two way radios at all) have never used a two way radio system, so this is a new concept which over time all staff will adapt to.

As to why they been fitted is to alert drivers on routes of rtc incidents/road closures or diversions especially in the city centre, and the radio systems are proving their worth already in depots which have gone live.
