    I felt sorry for Rodney when he failed his test and you could see he was pretty Pigged off, nobody likes to be told they’d failed their test if the drive seemingly went well, BUT forgetting his indicator on a roundabout was a big no no, other motorists don’t read your mind and potentially it could have caused somebody else to crash into you.
    It is harsh just failing having one major fault and the rest was fine but it’s safety first!

    "bus driving dream could be over" errr. The narrator is aware there are around 20 bus companies in London right? If you don't pass with arriva you'll pas with someone else. Eventually. If not, take lessons with a private tutor and get your D licence that way! Pisses me off the way narrators over dramatize things, /Rant over

    • @kd84afc
      @kd84afc 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      20? try 11 companies.
      Problem with training with private tutors, many of them won't train a driver to a service standard level, So he could go off to a private tutor, get their D licence and two things will happen, They still be required to do 15 hours of training with a company instructor or they could fail a internal bus companies tests because each company as a certain standard and Arriva are one of the stricter companies and are more stricter with people who hold a PCV license then say someone training from scratch with them
      You are correct that this TV show was edited to make it look good and dramatic for certain points, I also heard a rumour that many drivers who appeared to pass first time actually passed 2nd or on their 3rd attempts.

    • @danielgould9107
      @danielgould9107 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I'm afraid youre only counting the "big boy" companies. You haven't included companies like CT plus etc. The actual figure is around 17-20 companies generally.
      And lol at the high standards part. As someone who worked and trained with Arriva i'd say that's BS. The instructors do more yacking than instructing. Then blame the trainee when they fuck up. The delegated examiner is another joke who has before put through trainees who have failed the PCV reverse exercise, Hit kerbs, and stopped in a safe place...on Zig Zags......! Arriva also are one of the highest in terms of accidents and fatalities according to Tfl figures. If that's what you call high standards then you can stuff it. I'd take the DVSA standards over some joke of a bus company training school any day thanks.

    • @danielgould9107
      @danielgould9107 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Oh but yes I fully agree on the tests part. Many trainees when I were there passed on their 5th attempt and even then they'd accumulated a ton of minors!! Arriva had no choice to put them on the road though as they were and always are short of drivers as its such a shit place to work.

    • @kd84afc
      @kd84afc 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Daniel Gould can you list the companies that make up the other 6 or 9 companies as I did include ct plus who I admit are completely shit tfl list of companies and can you link me the stats that say arriva are the worst.

    • @danielgould9107
      @danielgould9107 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I don't know the names of the companies. Many of which you or I wont have heard of. But there are definitely way more than 11. Feel free to do your own googling of you're honestly that bothered.
      Also for figures search tom Kearney on both google and twitter. He has the latest up to date figures regarding accidents and fatality data.

      In the year I was there, 20 drivers I knew either left or were sacked for having an accident that was not there fault. the managers are scum and ask could it have been avoided?

    • @leicestertravels4705
      @leicestertravels4705 ปีที่แล้ว

      Because London’s so big most have their own route, but they help with others on occasion. I think it differs by city. Leicester, where I live for example has rotas. One has all the routes at that depot, while others just have a selection (this is what I was told on one of my Flickr posts a while back, so it might have changed, especially as the depot we talked about has since closed).
      DoubleDeckerAnton’s a good example. In his videos we see he’s usually on the 40, and he transferred from Abellio to the current operator (I know he’s not allowed to mention it but we all know what it is) to stay on the route. It’s not common for drivers to change company with their route. However, he did the 176 on its first night with them, and on the last Abellio 343, he told the passengers on it to look forward to a new friendly driver, referring to himself.

    At the start of the video, we see the instructor or is he an examiner ? not sure but the older gentleman with the clipboard and glasses , right now we all know who i am referring to yes.. Go look at the start and see what he does.
    Ok you see him flying towards the front of the bus yes , ? and falling sideways ! Either he is a very and i do mean a VERY unstable person,. and a complete and utter idiot for being in that position in the first place !
    Or he is play acting for the cameras.
    Given the fact that the driver didn't even move and inch going forwards while braking, or the man sitting behind the examiner barely move. This shows what lengths people will go to, too over dramatise thing's for their benefit.
    Again the driver and the other guy hardly moved at all, yet the other guy instructor or examiner throws himself forwards..
    This person needs to be removed from his position and sacked.. No if's no butt's.
    He is not there to play act or give the impression that thing's were worse than they were.
    This does not do the student any good.
    And he's not the brightest bulb in the pack, this is evident that while he is throwing himself forwards, no one else is even moving... Had he forgot the cameras see everything.. Well i guess so.
