When I lived in Portugal there was this cobblestone street in my bus commute that just fit one vehicle with some room. At least one every month the bus would be stuck there because someone parked "real quick" with a wheel up the sidewalk. People just don't care unless there's constant enforcement.

Public transit vehicles should have push bars like police cars do.

Those thinks are banned in Europe nowadays and I have never seen them in all the dacades before that ban... unless in US media (or in very rural setups lacking actual streets).
