Hello there from RU, Saint-Petersburg.Thank you very much for your videos! Just started working as Bus driver, I have licence to drive a bus (you can get license while driving little minibus, got it about a year ago) and started working 2 weeks ago as trainee, after a week I will work alone. Your videos are insanely helpful, even though you are driving on the left)! You should have seen how roads are bad here... And the fact that no one taught me to do basic maneuvers on long bus (ЛиАЗ-5292) and I haven't had personal car, we started right away in the city with passangers, my mentor (he's really good) told me "What do you think, that you are in a fairy tale?" (with joke tone of course) and somehow manage to do this with him. Now driving much better and can handle alone I guess. I think you should do some more videos about parking like parallel and backing up between two busses with degree (not from straight line, from some degree), and ever forward parking between 2 busses (same, with some degree)

I'm still struggling with roundabouts. I have decent spatial awareness in a car, but find curbs come up very fast in my left and right mirrors in the bus. This was very helpful.

Thanks for useful tips. I'm currently learning to drive a bus in Scotland. Recognised Golden Beach in your video as I once lived there 😊

The Sunshine Coast is a cracking part of the world. I do hope to travel to Scotland one day because that looks like a beautiful part of the world. Good luck with your journey.

Really appreciate your channel and video. Your instruction and narration is clear and easily understood and the video production and editing is excellent. As a new bus driver myself and also a Learning & Development professional in my previous career, I find your content really valuable.

Cheers. That’s probably why no one lets me drive buses all the time anymore. I appreciate the feedback.
