Pictures have emerged of a bus packed full of people none of whom appeared to be wearing masks in the run-up to Christmas.
Kerry Hargreaves, 44, said the bus was spotted at around 6.30pm on December 23 as it stopped near the traffic lights in Pentre, Rhondda.
She said it didn't pull up at a bus stop, but let dozens of people on board at the traffic lights, and most of them weren't wearing masks.

The bus was said to be heading towards Gelli, and Kerry said she had concerns over the fact that coronavirus rules didn't appear to be enforced.
She said: "About 30 youngsters just came running to the bus in front of the car. There's no bus stop until you get further up the road.
"I have COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) so it really affects me. There was one person at the front with a mask on, and one person at the back of the bus. He (the driver) was letting them on. They were all laughing and joking with the driver. Not one of those people had a mask on getting onto that bus."
Kerry said she found it upsetting to see as masks are mandatory on public transport due to coronavirus restrictions in Wales.
She said she understood that young people wanted to go out and enjoy themselves, but it was hard to watch people disobey the rules.
"There are whole families who have died in Treorchy of Covid," she added.
"I haven't had it yet, but it would kill me if I had it. It just angers me that masks are not being enforced. I won't go on buses because of Covid, and I try to stay in as much as I can, so to see that was really petrifying. Not one of them was keeping their distance to try and keep people safe."
Kerry said she didn't know which bus company was responsible for the service, as she only saw that the bus was red.
She also said she didn't think she saw buses like it operating in the area often.
Kerry added: "I understand they are young. I'm not old myself, but you have to understand there is a virus out there and it's killing people. They should stick to the rules. I was watching in disbelief."
