They need more exercise and making them stand up on a crowded bus helps this. Are they nuts.
Older people struggle more with balance and I imagine could and would fall over!!

speechless I take it the professor does not do public transport / is not old enough to have any real experience of what he is suggesting!

My perfectly fit and healthy grandad who exercises every day by walking and gardening on his allotment fell down the stairs on a bus and suffered a bleed on his brain as a result. He went upstairs as there were no spare seats downstairs and he's almost 80.

How ridiculous, so old people need to stand up on busses and trains because they need the excersise, what so younger people don't?
I have never heard such a pile of tosh, how does anyone know just from looking at someone how much excersise they get? Bad enough that the younger generation are moaning about how unfair it is that pensioners are getting too much money, now they are being told it's good to be an ignorant anus and not even offer them a seat on a bus.
