TTC Orion VII HEV Hybrid 1008 (Route 60 Steeles West) - Interior Ignition/Start up and Bus Ride

This is probably my best Orion HEV video to date!! The first 25 seconds displays whats it's like inside a bus with the engine off. 00:28 is the "grand finale" lol. Best of all, this bus driver "floors it" when he gets on to Steeles. Honestly...I never saw this comming. This is epic...well..maybe not lol

The bus was off because the drivder was a head of schedule and since the the bus was stopped at York U I guess the driver decided to take a coffie break lol

LOL - There was this one driver on the 53 Steeles. He stopped at the Tim Hortons @ Midland and went in to get a coffee, and some timbits. Funny time. He left the doors open and engine on too. Some one could have got on for free. Or even steal a bus!
