Buses used for enforcement

The request was successful.

Dear Transport for London,

I request to know the following:
1. Are buses fitted with any devices routinely used to enforce traffic and/or parking laws?
2. Do bus drivers routinely play a part in the enforcement of traffic and/or parking laws?
3. Which traffic and/or parking contraventions are routinely enforced in this manner?

Yours faithfully,
