How I Drive A Bus
Australia
Приєднався 20 чер 2022
Hi and welcome to How I drive a bus.
I'm just a random guy that drives buses in Australia. I have too much time on my hands, a couple of cameras, and access to a bus. Also some weird tools to help with my animation.
Cheers.

I'm learning to be a bus driver in Toronto, Canada, and your vids are helping big time to prepare for my practical test.
Glad the videos help. Good luck with your learning.
Really appreciate your channel and video. Your instruction and narration is clear and easily understood and the video production and editing is excellent. As a new bus driver myself and also a Learning & Development professional in my previous career, I find your content really valuable.
Thanks vey much, I really appreciate the feedback. I enjoy making these videos and I hope produce some more after I've completed a couple of work projects.
good vid
wow. you're a terrible bus driver.
Cheers. That’s probably why no one lets me drive buses all the time anymore. I appreciate the feedback.
Can you please explain 1:17 a bit more. I try and do this but still turn late
Do you turn when the wheel is in line with the end of the median strip or past the median strip? Thanks
I usually began turning when the rear wheel is in line with the end of the island or median strip. I don’t wait until the rear wheels are past the island, as this usually places me deeper into the intersection than necessary. Which makes it difficult in narrow streets. Often you can start turning very slowly just before the end of the island to smooth out the turn. Hope this helps, and good luck.
@@hidab perfect thank you!! I have gotten myself into trouble a few times now and couldn't figure it out 😪
I'm just starting out in the industry. Your videos are excellent. Short and sweet and full of practical advice. Thank and well done.
Thanks. I appreciate the feedback. Good luck with your journey.
1:29 crrrrrrrunch!!! Crunchy crunchy...
Thanks, I've always wondered how bus drivers finagle their way around tight corners.
Glad this video helped.
These are super helpful mate thank you
Glad you they're of help to you.
thanks mate. Going for an interview as a school bus driver. These videos are very helpful.
Glad it helped. Best of luck!
I'm still struggling with roundabouts. I have decent spatial awareness in a car, but find curbs come up very fast in my left and right mirrors in the bus. This was very helpful.
I'm glad it was helpful. Good luck on your learning journey.
Thanks for useful tips. I'm currently learning to drive a bus in Scotland. Recognised Golden Beach in your video as I once lived there 😊
The Sunshine Coast is a cracking part of the world. I do hope to travel to Scotland one day because that looks like a beautiful part of the world. Good luck with your journey.
Thank you for this.
My pleasure!
I'm currently training in Melbourne and this was very helpful. I've only driven for about an hour so far and I think I have a handle on steering and the width of the bus. It's the 15 meters behind me that I'm absolutely not used to and leading the front axle by 3 meters doesn't help either.
Glad it was helpful!
Great set of videos! I'm still in training and these videos help. How long do you estimate it takes the average person to drive to the standard you are showing?
I’m glad you find the videos help. Most new drivers I speak with tell me they feel it takes about 6 months before they feel comfortable, but don’t feel confident until about a year or two of driving. So it does take a while. As with everything, some people do pick it up quicker than others. Hopefully you’re one of these people. I’m hoping to make more videos soon.
Thanks. The probationary period is 6 months but I’ve seen people washed out because they may not be up to a minimum safety standard even before they head out on their own!
@@roysyntageros4191 I think it might depend on the trainers. I got dropped by one company that effectively expected you to get competent in 5 days. I’ve now been with another doing basic competency for a good two weeks. I’m getting there I think, at least, I know what I need to get good at if you see what I mean.
Love the animation as well. I think it really clarifies the real-time videos.
Awesome, thank you!
Yes, great video.
Great.
Thanks.
thank you for sharing,,,i am newbie trying to drive a bus,,more video pls
Thanks, I’ll be making more videos soon. Good luck.
Very good explain 😊
Glad you liked it
Ok these are definitely the hardest ones
I actually enjoy the tight turns for the challenge.
I found your videos helpful, made my everyday trucking easier by a lot.
Thank you for the feedback.
Great video and I would like to see the video how to avoid tail swing incidents on multilane junctions (when turning). It will be excellent addition to your very helpful channel in my opinion.
Thanks for the feedback. Usually I set up a lane share position when turning left if I am unsure of the space around me. I also find it easiest to turn when traffic around me are moving, that way they can move away from the bus as I start the turn. I hope to be able to make more videos on how I drive, and hopefully will capture the scenario you mentioned.
I think turning left with a bus (here in south america would be turning right) is the hardest maneuver to do with a bus and truck
It certainly has it's challenges. Especially in tight situations. Thanks for the comment.
All the videos are well explained and very helpfull. Thanks
Glad you like them!.
