I don't like stops where sitting runs the risk of missing the bus. (Most stops are request stops where I live)

I suppose there could be a button you could sit/lean/step on to flash a solar- and battery-powered blinking light when held (not a toggle switch, people would forget to turn it off). Durable, several in parallel and preferrably not finger-operated, since that is less hygienic and uses up one's hand. A PIR or radar sensor might work but passers-by and animals could set it off, plus most require the subject to keep moving. Of course, bus drivers will need to get the memo on the signal: where I live, they don't need to be waved at, the presence of a person "at the bus stop" should be enough and it usually does work except for bad visibility. Although they sometimes ignore the request buttons inside because people could have leaned on them accidentally, checking if someone has got up and is at the door (not very friendly for elderly people who can't safely stand in a moving bus).
