Yes and no.. PHP4 doesn't has them, but PHP5 has them. You should read the great article about PHP5 at http://www.sitepoint.com/article/coming-soon-webserver-near/ . In the five page, there have about public, private and protected.

Anyway, I usually like to do this:

$statement = "{$this->$Name} rides bus number {$busNumber}";

instead this:

$statement = $this->$Name . " rides bus number " . $busNumber;
