Are there any kind of stops or signs, or can you ask the bus to stop anywhere on the route on these segments? Around here there are a lot of "request stops" in the country side: you have to waive when the bus arrives or it won't stop (unless someone is getting off naturally), but there is a pole with a sign at these places (often not more infrastructure, i.e. no bench, waste basket or shelter). It would be nice if you wrote something about this so that people don't confuse these 2 systems (or is it the same?).
Hail and ride also occurs with trains.
