Mate I’ve always wanted to be a bus driver since I was a kid getting on my first routemaster. Back in the 80’s on the 53 route to plumstead Im looking in being a bus driver in the next 6 years just waiting for all my kids to grow up in to there teens so that I’m free from the school runs 😂 loving your channel this is what the bus network needs in all over the UK 🇬🇧 for drivers like you to document there journeys as a driver and a representative of the bus company’s keep up the good work if you can get on a south east route to thamesmead Erith Bexleyheath abbey wood be good to see you on a 177 or 96 route
Same happened to me 30 years ago, was pulling up at East Croydon Station. A mini cab was in the bus stop and the passenger opened the rear door as the centre of my bus was level with his car. The door caught my rear exit doors and bent it right round so it was flush with the drivers door. The funny thing is the passenger in the mini cab still got out and walked off in the station leaving the mini cab speechless 😶, 😂
I watch your videos quite regularly and enjoy them alot. Ever since i started high-school, i wanted to become a bus driver and i still do. Seeing you drive my school bus had a great impact on that. Im 18 this year and i will start my driving in September. I just have one question, can i get my pcv license with stagecoach on an automatic licence or do i need a manual licence as of 2022. Thanks for the help 😀😀.
Brilliant video. Glad you're enjoying being a bus driver
I work for London transport museum as well

I trained at Plumstead, but I transferred to Catford which is much closer, I learnt 53 but never had a chance to drive it. Thanks for the kind words
Nice to see a local TH-camr 🙌
