I HAVE just returned from an overseas trip, and would like to add to the comments of Katy Lee (South China Morning Post, September 10) regarding Citybus services. I am pleasantly surprised to find that Citybus now operate route 12M via Caine Road, and route 12 via Seymour Road, to Central. Having travelled both ways now, I am encouraged to leave my car at home. Apart from the air-conditioning - which is at the right temperature - the drivers are extremely careful. No crazy, lurching habits. If Citybus takes over routes 13, 23A, and 40M, giving a wider choice to Caine Road/Seymour Road residents, there would be no reason to drive a car to Central. Nor in fact, will I be a user of the new Mid-Levels/Central escalator system. R.H. LLOYD Kowloon
