• Always wait for a bus in a well lit place, in view of any security cameras and near other people if possible
• Try to sit near the driver or the guard

• In an emergency, locate and sound the alarm or use the telephone at the help points situated on the train platforms which will connect you immediately to the British Transport Police or station staff
