I’m new to your channel Shaun and I’m liking the videos. Sad that the company I work for we haven’t got a many different buses as your company has quite I few
Bus driver in Canada. Man streets design in Europe are weird. Like if driving on the left side was not weird enough, man the streets are so narrow. Cars parked everywhere on both side of the roads. 11:25 you go on a street that is barely large enough for 1 way, yet car come from both direction, parked cars. 14:55.... Wow, just WOW..... a street that large in Canada is a 1 way street, not only it's both way there, cars are parked on both side. half way on the sidewalk ?@@?. Crazy. I salute you sir, i don't think i'd enjoy my job as much driving there and i love my job, been doing it for 12 years now.
Hey there! Love the comment, thank you for commenting on this video! Honestly over here in the Uk we don't have many bus lanes unless its a city centre. We do get the tight roads but we do have lovely routes all over! so I can't complain haha :) Take care buddy and stay safe :)
Great videos and vlogs, maybe being an HGV I should not admit I enjoy watch lol, but hey its great to see how other commercial drivers go about their day is Yorkshire tiger an independent company or part of a multi-national company, keep the great videos coming
Aye. Think people forget two lanes go all the way round from Queensgate to Wakey Road. Bit like people that forget the part time bus lane along Lockwood Road heading towards Meltham. Been cut up a few times by people turning left not realising it’s only a bus lane from 4-6.30pm Monday to Friday only.
This has to be the stupidest bus station I've seen, and I haven't seen that many. Having to reverse out, with alot of other buses having to do the same, at the same time. You seem like a nice guy from previous videos, keep up being nice!
Really enjoying your videos! Used to want to be a bus driver until i saw how hard it actually is lol do you ever get given new routes? If so, how do you know where you're going?
Been a bus driver for about a year now. Some daily issues in my area would be customers too busy on their phones to put their arm out to request me to stop. Another would be not having method of travel ready such as i have to wait while they open our app load their ticket or dig down their many bags for a pass or give me a 20 note for a pound fair so now im running late thanks. I love my job overall i just want to drive my bus round the route no dramas. More of a tiny rant but if i can ask maybe do a video on your experiences with some tips for passengers let us help you as i find all the stress in this job is around the front left of the bus around the ticket machine boarding area
6 months for me. What I cannot stand is when there is about 10 - 15 people at a non sheltered bus stop, in the rain, and one passenger barges their way to the front of the queue, then starts digging down looking for their ticket/pass/cash, taking up to a minute while everyone else is standing in the rain ! Have a mind to tell them to get off until they are ready... wonder how that would go down?
Eh, a proper bus with bumps and rattles lol. I was trying to read what someone had written on the dash but couldn't make it out... Nice video, maybe you should sell them to Tiger to help with route-learning 🤗
Hey mate! Just seen you driving the 262 back into town, I was in a takeaway at Aspley as you stopped at the traffic lights, you didn’t see me unfortunately though.
In Fife I call it the magical mystery tour as some of our routes go everywhere & I mean everywhere. I do love the Express routes we do with Edinburgh being my favourite. Because there’s very few stops.
Ok so today im driving my bus doing 40mph on approach to a busy roundabout and a passenger thinks is ok to ask me questions while moving. We cannot afford to make mistakes if we do then its many lives at stake plus you will be late. Please people for your saftey DO NOT DISTRACT THE DRIVER. If you need our attention ring the bell or say to us please stop when you can i need your attention then we can be professional and help best we can. Saftey always comes first
Yes! A VDL with a SB200 engine!!!! Love these engines. Keep the amazing vidoes up
Iv had a bad day at school and this has made my day great agen.

Cab videos are magic mate, great work and love 'em! Really good bass sound too on that bus, Optare Versa? Very scenic the routes you go on. :-)

Great video, I'm 28 and I've always wanted to become a bus driver. I only have an automatic license though which is a downside

Eh, a proper bus with bumps and rattles lol. I was trying to read what someone had written on the dash but couldn't make it out...
Nice video, maybe you should sell them to Tiger to help with route-learning 🤗
Andy Richards it’s difficult to read but I think it says ‘Doors to be closed for kneeling’.

They can use them for free because im nice ;) I won't charge them yet lol :)
Hey mate! Just seen you driving the 262 back into town, I was in a takeaway at Aspley as you stopped at the traffic lights, you didn’t see me unfortunately though.
you'll have to wave more next time so I see you! or throw me a slice of pizza hahah !!! gutted I didn't see you mate!
@@TheFlatCapBusDriver I'l be sure to grab your attention should I see you again!
Great work mate, what do you think of the National holiday Setra coach?
Nice
Am I the first? 🤔...😁👍
You are I think 🚌😂😂
Hes not ive seen people comment before anton
Anton...do you still have your volvo 740?
@@arfaanalam1761 ...no...I sold it 7 years ago
What happens if your on your route and you case a serious case of the shits?
Residential area is quite challenging indeed.
Do you notice have Perspex screen on your buses
Which City or town is this in?
Because it looks like a lot of fun to drive
And what are the requirements for training?
Are all Optare Tempo's Voith or just those with Yorkshire Tiger?
I wouldn't know mate
Is this an MCV Evolution??
From the thumbnail its an Optare Tempo.
Its got to be as the dials are from a VDL/DAF SB180/SB200, the thumbnail image is indeed an Optare Tempo
We have a route like this in Glasgow I think I goes through every housing estate in Glasgow 😂
Don’t get me wrongs it’s a great run but sometimes I’m honestly not interested in the slightest about it! Feels so long at times!! 😭😭
The Flat Cap Bus Driver yeh we have a route up here that is about 2 hours and 20 mins long I’m learning it next week, should be fun
In Fife I call it the magical mystery tour as some of our routes go everywhere & I mean everywhere. I do love the Express routes we do with Edinburgh being my favourite. Because there’s very few stops.
So it's a VDL bus with an Optare body?
Nice. What holder do you use? I wanted to film my journey.
I use a go pro mate!! hope this helps!!
What bus you driving
I just want to ask when you was training with stagecoach where was your depot placed?
Rawmarsh matey!
Is that a Tempo with a VDL horn!? 😍
Transport Adventures Of England I believe that it’s one of the MCV bodied VDL SB180s
gledhill56 whatever it is. I’m in love 😂
Thats 1 hell of a loop around kirkheaton and i dont know why thay are still sending busses down. Grovsner road its to narrow
Tell me about it! My car nearly gets hit on a regular basis cos it's so chaotic there
Do you have a camera constantly monitoring/recording you from the depot?
We have CCTV on all buses, however this is only used when required. we aren't constantly watched :)
The Flat Cap Bus Driver Thank you, love your channel and your personality :)
Shane I didn't see u mate I live in brighouse every time I'm in Huddersfield bus station I try looking for you but your not there
When you see me give us a wave pal🚌🚍
Any chance you can do a video about show me tell me questions?
I'll addition to the list mate!!
Good video, what bus was this?
I think it's an MCV Evolution
yes my friend!!
Is that bus an Optare?
optare tempo.
@@calvmatthews9064 Thought it was. lol
It's an MCV Evolution I believe
Yeah it’s an MCV Evolution is this one.
MCV'S are slightly different and the difference is the body type and the lights this is a tempo. :)@@zachlee8479
Yes Shaun :) you still uploading?
still uploading mate :) not stopped haha
Did you jump the lights at 2 mins mark... tut tut
I try to cut as much out at lights as possible, sometimes it looks worse than it actually is haha
Do you like MC Genno D
