The first bus made me laugh so hard cuz it had an ad on the side saying challenge accepted

[@lastresort1684]

Yeah, and i should be standing next to the bus and wave the hole time to the passengers goodbye, goodbye....👋🤣

[@karenholladay2612]

@@lastresort1684 whole, or entire.

[@lastresort1684]

@ Karen, sorry you're right! It should be whole..🤗

Never walk behind a bus especially on a icy snowy hill. Never walk behind anything period.

[@ElijahLucasSanDiego]

I like both low-floor and high-floor buses!❤

7:39 those engines are a beast.

[@mwolfgr01]

You'd think they would equip these buses with all wheel drive considering the climate they're in.

[@sovb]

It'd kinda be overkill in the summer months, I think. Normally they work just fine, the weight mostly compensates for it. They rarely ever get fully stuck.

[@hacks486]

@@sovb you could do this for some busses especially the routes with steep hill climbs like Caledonia road/Dufferin and most north routes.

1 year after: We had to go through the same thing on route 32 when going up the BIA hill. Luckily, the 2006 Orion VII OG HEV had a very great Cummins ISL engine, very fit for the snow kind of.

[@OrionVII-vz3iu]

The 1000 OG HEVs use a ISB engine, the 7900 and 8000 OGs use an ISL engine

In Japan and Korea, winter tyres are a legal requirement on all vehicles, this kind of stuff never happens, buses run on time, and people get to their work. This is utterly shocking and totally avoidable.

[@kallek771]

Everytime see this kind of videos from NA keeps me thinking how things would be more easy if 1. You would have proper winter tires 2. Little bit more driving skills. When tyre spins at winter, last thing to do is give more throttle

[@amacdonald760]

Those buses are as good on ice as the Toronto Maple Leafs are! LOLOL

I thought transit agencies take on a paramilitarynature during (Before ) and afteR Storms

[@johnwang9914]

Canada needs an active program to train open semi-autonomous vehicles. These snow opportunities for AI to learn how to compensate for lack of traction doesn't happen often and certainly not in Arizona or California where current autonomous vehicle development are happening. If such AI training isn't actively done in Canada, Canadians would be the last to benefit and if it's not open development, there would be few opportunities for independent small Canadian startup corporations as the major auto manufacturer take up control of development.

GM Classic bus is the BEST

Sliding like a zamboni

[@BurnedNoodle]

DAMN, but hows the ISL?

[@OrionVII-vz3iu]

idk the isl might be easier to handle in snow

[@yovin13]

​@@OrionVII-vz3iuDef easier cuz hybrids kinda suck in snow

[@rustyshackleford9337]

That wouldn’t have happened in a New Flyer…

[@basharalzubaidi1355]

The. Benefit of poor cityplanning

[@nakedluck11]

Get some snow tires for the winter months. They could last several seasons.

[@valtterifani]

Once I've been on a bus that got stuck at an intersection, so the driver ordered: "All passengers to the very back!" When the order was obeyed, the weight increased so much that the bus was able to break free and continue its journey.

[@schnuurtchke]

The bus is sliding like a zamboni

[@bernddoerper5667]

Here in Germany we have allways the same problem. A few snowflakes and the public transport busses can't drive anymore.

[@schnuurtchke]

I don’t like low floor buses they are JUST LIKE SMALL HATCHBACK CARS

[@schnuurtchke]

I don’t like winter!

[@floodedcar123]

I love it,

[@svift3457]

Такое ощущение, что они дрифтуют чисто ради удовольствия. Не могут раскачкой или вперед-назад. У нас бы в России давно бы уже выехали.

[@ВалераМиронов-б5м]

Думаю я,уважаемый,здесь,в их случае,просто элементарная тупость,этого не понять нам,живущим в России,они просто тупо давят на педаль газа,не понимая что будут шлифовать так до льда,превратив этот снег,по колесами,в ледяную корку,с которой вообще,нет шанса,в подъем,тронуться!Потерять столько времени и топлива,на бесполезную буксовку,вместо того,чтобы скатиться чуть назад,это невероятно глупо,по моему и еще,зачем то газуют,в пол,это здесь,в снежной каше-совершенно не поможет,а только мешает тронуться,внатяг,потихоньку,машина пойдет,но не так,Газ в Палас,как шутят иногда остряки-это не в этом случае!Хотя,судя по надписи,по верхнему краю крыши,над передней дверью,автобусы эти гибридные,с дизель -электрической силовой установкой,в этом случае нет прямой связи ведущих колес,с дизелем,через обычную КПП и трудно регулировать степень пробуксовки колес,у них агрегаты живут своей жизнью,таковы особенности конструкции такой,мне эта система напомнила наш ЛуноХод,ЛиАЗ-677,на котором я по молодости,учился на категорию Д,30 лет назад,там,в этом ЛуноХоде,из-за АКПП,была подобная проблема,с началом движения,в подобной ситуации,как и здесь,на видео!

[@yurumaa5362]

нефига раскачкой не выедешь. там гибрид. дизель генератор а на колеса электромотор . там метод тапка в полу и трением лед плавить самый эфективный будет
