I did google "bus-stops-on-a-slope", but nothing jumped out. What are "bus-stops-on-a-slope"?

  I think they meant that the bus stop is on a hill maybe?

  Asphalt, like glass, is an amorphous solid. When a heavy truck sits still on asphalt, asphalt will flow out from under the tires. Not only do you get a depression and eventually a pot hole where the tire was, and you get a little hill next to it. You just about need an offroad vehicle to avoid hitting the street.

    Moreover, when a heavy vehicle like a loaded passenger bus has to accelerate from stationary on a hill, it exerts incredible force on the asphalt below it.

    Doesn’t just happen on hills you can see this phenomenom on flat intersections too that have seen a lot of nearby construction vehicles (cement trucks, dump trucks, etc are probably the worst).
