I move that the Vehicular Efficiency Bill be amended as follows:

As a result of this motion, the following text will be added to the start of the bill

Quote:
 
In this bill, the phrase regular personal vehicles refers to any passenger road vehicle, with the exclusion of those buses and coaches with at least 40 seats. A passenger vehicle is defined as any road vehicle with 3 or more seats, and/or with at least 15% of the total volume of the vehicle taken up by space for passengers. The driver is included as a passenger in the previous statement.


And the following text will be added to the end of the bill

Quote:
 
Also as a result of this bill, buses and coaches would not be able to be purchased except by organisations intending to use these vehicles for large scale transport of people. Such organisations include, but are not limited to, public transport firms and schools. The manufacturer would be legally obliged to request proof that the organisation intends to use these vehicles as stated above.



[I think that just about covers it. If anyone wishes to make any further ammendments to the bill, they can do so in future.]

Very few buses have 50 seats. The bendy orange monsters around here do but not normal ones.

Err... the Reading School minibus had 53 seats...

edit: or was it 43? Either way, most buses have more seats than that.

But point taken, I've lowered it to 40 :)

This makes much more sense and is clearer than mine. I'm just vague, like when I accidentally outlawed firearms :P...

The question is as in the motion.

As many who are of that opinion say aye,
Aye!
To the contrary no,
No!

Division!
