Buses around Nottingham, Victoria Centre Bus Station | March 2020
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 бер 2020
- As Mansfield Road Southbound was closed on 7th & 8th of March 2020 between Woodborough Road and the exit to the bus station (to allow a crane to be in operation on the York House site), all NCT & Trent Barton Calverton services were diverted non-stop via the bus station.
I've included in this video all the diverted buses, plus the ones which would normally be seen operating within Victoria Bus Station.
I've also included the **** (let's keep it clean here) of a taxi driver, that instead of driving away as he was blocking the road - he decided to make me move out the way for him on the pavement so the buses could get round him! I wasn't even particularly close to the kerb (in order to allow for buses to swing), so I found it even more infuriating!! Funnily, the driver of the 89 just rolled their eyes at me towards the taxi driver; guess it's just one of the many they have to deal with that have no consideration for others...
Thanks for watching! :)

It's great to see York House has gone. Not before time.
1:01 that's done tight corner done by a Scania omnidekka
Yeah, they're quite long the Omnidekkas are
@@MTVvids I drive for NCT and mainly do the yellow line 68 and 69 route we have a turning circle at snape wood that the omnidekkas won't fit round the gas buses just manage it and the e400s can fly round :D
@@terry141186 Ah, I love that turning circle at Snape Wood! Occasionally I've got a driver on an Omnidekka that did it in one (provided there was no cars parked there) but it did seem like a massive struggle.. As a passenger, the E400s seem much less stressful around there haha
@@MTVvids yeah it can be done in one on an onnidekka if there's no cars in there as you can get the bus far over to the left then full lock right once the rear wheels are level with the end of that little island in the middle.
@@terry141186 yellow is my fav colour yellow is good on a enviro 400 ev yellow line is the best line
Good stuff mate. Do I dare say to that taxi driver though.... goodness me.
Thanks mate 😂
It an Uber not a taxi driver little different
Workshop and retford to Nottingham 33, the three,red arrow. 141, pronto, rainbow one, X1 use Victoria bus station but the other bus don't.
Yep, the Two stops there as well ;)
Ouch - that corner does not look friendly, especially for the Red Arrow coaches.
9:00 I just love how so many companies make the "Sorry" look extra goofy
Also, I don't know cab driver rules, but he _was_ on a double yellow there so I can't justify him, personally.
I can even remember when they had railings on the edge of the pavement in order to prevent buses from swinging over on that corner - so I guess it has got a bit easier for drivers 😅
True but I do like it when they say sorry - I get annoyed when it doesn't say sorry because I don't find it polite... lol
The only cab driver rule I know in Nottingham - is that they like to do what they want! I could've forced the taxi driver in this video to get off the *pedestrian* footpath that leads into a shopping centre, but I didn't want to hold up even more people so I just thought I'll sacrifice my position that's supposed to be segrated from the road for a taxi driver who doesn't want to drive around the block for their oblivious passenger... Sorry, I get really triggered with taxis :/ 😂
No lol I don't mean about them saying sorry - it's just the way they format it. It's always in italic, or it's slanted, or it's got an exclamation point or something lol It amuses me more than anything, but I know it's just a politeness feature.
Heh, I have more issues with vans more than anything. They don't have to be stationary or anything; they're just so big so they get in the way of everything. Since my stuff is mostly in Greater London, I don't have to deal with taxi drivers luckily. lol
The red arrows can actually take tighter turns than the omnidekkas as they have rear steering axles suprising how tight a turning circle they actually have.
@@terry141186 Wow, that's interesting, I suppose I can now picture how helpful the rear axle steering is now you've compared it to an Omnidekka :)
Cab driver rules are they do whatever they like
Need to slow down abit
