First of all bus company should not send a d/d bus on a route with a low bridge. Apart from driver, a controller should get sacked for allowing thos type of a vehicle on a low bridge route. I used to drive buses for 8 years and there was a list of routes with s/d only.
George’s road that can get my chocolate tanker under there MUST USE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD THOUGH!

That upstairs passenger wearing the white hard hat must have known
something that the other passengers didn’t.
. . . and he’s still reading his newspaper as if nothing happened.

When I was a bus driver I needed a break from the public (bunch of dicks you are lol) so I went onto the cleaning, fuelling and shunting side for a while at Daw Bank in Stockport
1 day, I went to get a bus out of the park to be cleaned and fuelled, the roof was completely missing, all the upstairs chair backs were backwards.
Went into office to see who’d been driving it and it was a female driver who was just cashing in as if nothing had happened, she’d not mentioned anything to anyone and was just going to sign off and go home. We assume she was in shock or something, no idea, but where was the roof■■? Georges Road of course. Lucky it didn’t hurt or kill anyone.

Has that bus got leather seats on the top deck. WTH??
A lot of buses have those type of seats now, especially those on long routes like this one.
