I don't know if the impression I've got from using buses recently is typical nationwide but there's seems to be more women bus drivers appearing. I did see a report on the new recently where they spoke to HGV drivers and they found a rare woman driver who was very critical of what facilities HGV drivers have available e.g. the difficulties in using the toilet during a shift. It might be easier for the bus industry to attract women than the HGV industry.
