Bus driver in Canada. Man streets design in Europe are weird. Like if driving on the left side was not weird enough, man the streets are so narrow. Cars parked everywhere on both side of the roads. 11:25 you go on a street that is barely large enough for 1 way, yet car come from both direction, parked cars. 14:55.... Wow, just WOW..... a street that large in Canada is a 1 way street, not only it's both way there, cars are parked on both side. half way on the sidewalk ?@@?. Crazy. I salute you sir, i don't think i'd enjoy my job as much driving there and i love my job, been doing it for 12 years now.

Hey there! Love the comment, thank you for commenting on this video! Honestly over here in the Uk we don't have many bus lanes unless its a city centre. We do get the tight roads but we do have lovely routes all over! so I can't complain haha :) Take care buddy and stay safe :)

Aye. Think people forget two lanes go all the way round from Queensgate to Wakey Road. Bit like people that forget the part time bus lane along Lockwood Road heading towards Meltham. Been cut up a few times by people turning left not realising it’s only a bus lane from 4-6.30pm Monday to Friday only.

Been a bus driver for about a year now. Some daily issues in my area would be customers too busy on their phones to put their arm out to request me to stop. Another would be not having method of travel ready such as i have to wait while they open our app load their ticket or dig down their many bags for a pass or give me a 20 note for a pound fair so now im running late thanks. I love my job overall i just want to drive my bus round the route no dramas. More of a tiny rant but if i can ask maybe do a video on your experiences with some tips for passengers let us help you as i find all the stress in this job is around the front left of the bus around the ticket machine boarding area
@Volk18805 жыл бұрын
6 months for me. What I cannot stand is when there is about 10 - 15 people at a non sheltered bus stop, in the rain, and one passenger barges their way to the front of the queue, then starts digging down looking for their ticket/pass/cash, taking up to a minute while everyone else is standing in the rain ! Have a mind to tell them to get off until they are ready... wonder how that would go down?
