I want to thank you so much for your videos because they are what got me to pass my cdl/bp road test and I think you are masterful in your performance and skills so thanks again, keep them rolling.
I am so happy to learn the videos were helpful for you! Thank you for sharing your positive test outcome with me! Now, the real fun begins… Continued success in all you do, Electero.
@@SchoolBusSass I passed the test for the school today it was pretrip and driving , emergency evacuation and a few loading an unloading kids with no passenger but me an the trainer .. They're sending me to the DMV to take the actual CDL test next week I'm kinda nervous hopefully it'll go well.. Thanks for asking 🙂😎
@@DeBaby_ Anytime 💕 Your beauty warmed my heart right on up.... I had to say something. Did a CDL road test lead you to this page? I'm taking one next week
I take my CDL test this Wednesday and of course I'm more nervous than a monkey getting chased by a full grown mountain gorilla!! I drove for ups for a long time, now I'm 55 and single, retired and still wanting to drive for a career. Do you think I'm crazy or ? I wish I had more time before my test to watch and learn more from you and your videos, but unfortunately I don't. But, thanks for all you do for everyone needing help like you provided!!
Ray, not crazy at all! I started school bus driving so I could be a hands on parent and still work. I never would have believed how much I would come to love school bus driving. You have been driving for a long time and UPS has great training standards. I think you’ll find delivering children, far more rewarding, on so many levels. You’ve got this, Ray…enjoy the journey. I’ll be cheering for your success on Wednesday!
I have a question? At my driver's test, they removed all the cones except 1. I pulled back, they were gone? How would you park a school bus with only lines on the pavement? I test tomorrow 🤪
Good question, and thank you for asking! When I instruct my new students, many have never driver anything larger than their own personal vehicle and maneuvering this big ol’ bus, can seem intimidating at first. Particularly when you tell them they are going to parallel park the school bus as one of their testing maneuvers. Initially, we take all maneuvers slower. This gives my drivers the opportunity to correct any problems that might occur. If your going fast, you likely won’t be able to correct the problem in time. This also helps them learn the pivot points on the bus and to utilize all of their mirrors. The parallel parking maneuver, in particular, is pretty much a formula, so once you learn the steps, it’s much easier to successfully complete the maneuver and apply similar pivot point principles to other maneuvers.
Thank you for your comment and feedback about the text moving too fast. I do have two additional blindside parallel parking videos which could be helpful for you. I will attach the links below if you’re interested.

@@SchoolBusSass Theresa, it went fabulous! I'm not sure how this works ,,, but I s ored a 6 out of an allowable score of 30. My text instructor said that I had the best scoring test since the start of his career...... so I'm so happy, and I thank you too for your time, and support!!
Just did that. Got my CDL! 😎
Outstanding news…congratulations and continued success in all you do.

Hello my name is Tyree and I have to take my road test next Tuesday at AllTown Bus Service in Skokie IL
Hello, Tyree
You can do this! Best wishes for a successful test outcome.
@@SchoolBusSass thank you
How do you monitor your mirror(s) to make sure the back end of the bus doesn't 'hit' the wall of cones you are parallel parking next to?
You need to scan your mirrors throughout the process. You’re focusing on specific mirrors at specific times, but all mirrors must be monitored.
Are you still planning of doing International School Bus Pre Trip Inspection in 2020 Therese Mileti
Yes, I will be doing an International transit RE, in August.
what that's two months Therese Mileti
We’ll see if I can get it done sooner...😀
Because i really want to see it🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
I have a question? At my driver's test, they removed all the cones except 1. I pulled back, they were gone?
How would you park a school bus with only lines on the pavement?
I test tomorrow 🤪
Is the parallel parking space lined in front, back, and sides? If it is, you can use the lines, in a very similar way to the cones.
Thank you, I'll let you know.
Is This A New Bus?
It’s a 2017.
Why Did You Make It In Slow Motion?
Good question, and thank you for asking!

@@SchoolBusSass It was noticeable it was in slow motion because the alarm.
This would be far more effective if the text moved slower; it's too rushed. 😍 That said, it's otherwise a fine demonstration.
Thank you for your comment and feedback about the text moving too fast.
