Nobody is arguing it isn’t efficient. It’s a pain in the ass and I need to deal with randoms in public.

This isn’t intended to refute people saying it isn’t?

So the very first result on Google for “double decker fuel efficiency” give the result “per gallon, while a ‘double-decker’ bus with a Diesel engine will run 11 miles per gallon”.

44 / 5 days is approx 9 miles poet day. 4.5 miles to and 4.5 miles back.

I didn’t want to believe this but I guess city dwellers where double deckers operate would probably have short commutes like this on average
