Wow, that road is in really bad shape in some spots, It's been a long time I've been on that road truck driving, I currently work for a charter bus company here in Florida

Welcome to Illinois! 😅

[@Bjd79]

True about constructions! Illinois is never ending. Indiana near Illinois border always construction same area every year.

Good ole Illinois road destruction. 74, 39, 90, 88, 80 all were bad when i lived there.

I don't usually venture to 39, but 74, 90, and 80 are still undergoing construction to this day 🤣

Can you make a video with all the horns on the buses? Does the tourrider have two horns like other mercedes busez?

[@alblua]

Sure! I can try to get around recording all the horns. Yes, the Tourrider has both an air and city horn

[@edprior2821]

I really love your POV videos. I think I learn something by watching how you turn your head to look when you make turns. Do your dispatchers take driver preferences into account when assigning buses, or is it all random?

[@alblua]

Thanks for watching! It's usually random assignment for charters, while schedule drivers are typically assigned a specific bus.
