Bus passes are more complicated. Stop them and pensioners make fewer (subsidised) journeys, bus companies reduce the service to save money, service becomes poor and paying passengers stop using it. Alternatively the fares increase to compensate for the subsidies and paying passengers stop using it. Net effect is more pollution.
They're issued by Local Authorities but can be used anywhere in the country in which they're issued eg, my English one can't be used in Wales. The actual conditions of use in the issuing Authority region can be varied eg, London-issued passes can be used on the underground but I can't use my W Berkshire pass on the London Underground, just the buses..
