Double Decker Driving School Episode 1 of 6.
A new batch of recruits are starting their six-week course at one of London’s largest double decker driving schools.
Single mum and former van driver Claire Carter is hoping that becoming a bus driver will be a smart move - with the steady salary a key motivation for her. She says: “If I do this then next year hopefully it might mean I can take my kids on holiday. They’re my babies, they’re my life.”
On her first day out on the open road Claire has a close encounter on a pedestrian crossing and nearly has a head-on collision. With the help of her instructor Alagarsamy Gopal, Claire needs to dig deep to summon the strength and the courage to stay on the course, and pursue her goal. She says: “When I got home I was so deflated. I was talking to my eldest son saying, ‘I don’t think I can do this.’ And he was like, ‘Mother, pull yourself together, you can do this.’”
Meanwhile, former recovery driver Yasin Cassim has moved to London from Gloucester to try his hand at the Double Decker driving course. He’s four weeks in and he and his instructor Mickey Welch are getting on famously, but when it comes to making mistakes, Yasin rarely believes it’s his fault.
Mickey says: “Some of them think they know it all but they don’t. If you don’t listen you won’t last long on this job. Just open your eyes.”
And when Yasin has a progress check with training officer Jim Johnston, sparks fly. After he is told off for not using the bus lane, Yasin storms off. Mickey has to resort to jokes, songs and even threats to keep his lippy trainee in line. But Yasin faces an uphill struggle to convince the instructors he has the discipline to be approved for his test, and let loose in a ten-ton bus.
Training officer Jim says: “A problem with attitude there, he doesn’t like being told what to do.”

That was her downfall, thinking a pocket size Smart car would be comparable to a doubledeck bus. Back in the late 70's I spoke to a woman doing her HGV 1, because she couldn't get a test date for a car test, so she went straight to class 1, because the car licence (at the time ) came automatically with the class 1 pass.

Being to stern of an instructor can and does affect the learners confidence and ability to learn. In school if a teacher makes the lesson boring and constantly stresses at you then you don't learn anything but when you are having a laugh with them and enjoying yourself you are put at ease and learn much quicker.

I lived in Bristol and was a TV repair man. Went to Australia where my qualifications weren't accepted, so got a coach license - after 3 one hour lessons ! Drove coaches for a year, then decided I wanted to drive buses. Did the 3 week training course, including driving lessons and drove buses in Adelaide for 29 years. The best job I ever had. You meet lots of people, out in the fresh air all day (unless you shut your window !) - it's a no pressure job and most of the people you meet are very nice. I'm retired now, but bus driving is a really good job to have.

I got my bus license 3 years ago. The first stage of process was culling down 67 applications, then medical and physical assessments. Afterwards, heavy vehicle license test. Once you passed, you go through test assessment with trainers. The assessments was rigorous, only 5 out of 21 made through. Now, I have the opportunity to experience drive both single and double deckers. The first year I struggled, because I haven't driven large and heavily vehicles before. Now, I'm very comfortable driving busses. The minors are your best friends and apply the hand brakes while you're stationary especially talking to trainers, slow down you're in a bus and it takes longer to stop none all the candidates use it. You have to get behind the wheels to get experience. Here's the difference between single and double deckers. Double decker busses are limited to and certain routes it can go including accidents and road diversion, and heavy and slow. Single-decker busses much faster and can go anywhere.

I can remember when I got my chauffeurs license and thought I was doing right well in a dumper. And THEN I started driving a concrete mixer and had to relearn everything I knew before. This was in the days before pumps and you had to just put the truck where it needed to go. And keep track of a top heavy load and get it the right consistency and try and keep the truck clean and not freezing in winter and everything else involved, but I'd rather do that than drive a bus. It was just me and the finishing crew and you learn to make it easier wherever you could. And every job was different. And you see a LOT of country an a short time.

When i was training to get my PCV license, we trained in pairs, and the guy i was training with never checked his mirrors, our instructor said to him one day "you just hit a car" in an attempt to make him check his mirrors more, he slammed on the brakes and ran back thinking he did hit someone, when we got back to the depot the guy went nuts at the instructor and i think he was right to put him in that position, but it made sure he always checked his mirrors in future, when your in a bus that weighs 10+ tonne, you may not feel very slight knocks or bumps, a tip to those going for their PCV license, Mirrors are your best friend when your on the road.

This Double Decker driving school is a challenge since you are not only learning how to drive a public bus but also driving a great big piece of machinery. Double deckers are heavier than the regular single deck bus. Driving a public bus is challenging since unlike a car where the dome light is used for finding stuff in your car such as the seatbelt when it's sitting still, you have to drive these big buses with the interior lights on and mostly at all times. And when you have them on, it paints a glare on the windshield at night. Maybe in the UK you might get off easy with your interior lights off if you are on a pretty sunny route where you have a only a few trees and you are driving during the daytime. You sometimes have to put up with loudly talking passengers.

I get a local stotts bus to college every day and the drivers are all lovely, much respect for the shit they deal with on the daily. I understand why a driver would feel intimidated by a bus but some people drive like divs

We have double deckers at my job in Sweden. I haven't driven them, but there is nothing extra or more difficult with them compared to normal 3 meter tall buses. They are more expensive so the bus conpany does not want any damage to them. There is also the thing with low bridges. So the one's driving them must be well known in the area where they are driving. In case they drive the wrong way or are diverted they must know not to be caught under a bridge. Apart from that there is no reason to have driving school for double deckers. 15 meter buses have more damages. A lot more.

Well, double decker busses aren't the norm in Sweden, they are in London. This is more just normal bus training, but it makes sense to do it with double deckers since they're the typical bus used

Pretty good. Been driving for 5 days now (3-4 hours per day). It's not easy at all. I still struggle with corners, but it's getting better and better each day. I always thought driving a bus will be easy, but it's not. You also notices so many bad drivers out there. But I still got 3-4 weeks training and hopefully I will pass my last practical test.

Reminds me of the days of training and assessing intern paramedics. Encouragement is a key factor in boosting confidence. "That wasn't bad, but try this way next time" is better than "geez, you nearly killed them! What the f*ck were you doing???" during scenarios. GBP25k as a salary? Is that a base salary or average including shift work? That's only AU$46K, not even a grand a week. Maybe free bus travel on days off is a perk.
