Satisfaction with personal safety on buses in the UK 2013

This statistic shows how bus users and non-users rate on-board personal safety on buses in the United Kingdom (UK), based on responses from a survey carried out in March 2013. With only just over half of bus users and a quarter of non-users giving the service a good rating in terms of personal safety while travelling, this could be seen as an important issue and a possible reason why more people do not travel on buses.

How would you rate the levels of personal safety from crime or threatening behaviour when travelling?

Characteristic	Bus users	Bus non-users
Very / fairly good	56%	26%
Neither good nor poor	21%	20%
Very / fairly poor	18%	12%
Don't know	5%	42%
