Bus driving use to be a good job. It's shite now, especially with all these concessionary passes about. Promotional opportunities? I don't think so. You start as a bus driver and stay as one forever. Happy working environment? No way. Some bus drivers are immature and purile. Overtime? Maybe, but no overtime rate or even a thankyou from the management. Job enjoyable? Not so as 12-13hr days are the norm.

@fkfj16 Many operators will avoid buses with middle doors, mainly because in the past, many passengers have been injured when alighting from the middle doors. I think London Transport are the only major user of buses with entrance/exit doors. Many of the other large operators such as First etc will avoid buses with middle doors. BTW, they don't make buses like they use to.

Great videos Pete - I was hoping you could possibly answer a question.
I noticed in Part 1 double deckers had exit doors on their buses - is there a reason this is no more the case?

@fkfj16 I gather that B & H buses had problems in the 80s with passengers being unsighted when exiting from these doors and subsequently being injured as the bus moved off with them still partway in/out. The buses were modified to not take power until all doors were closed but from then on all new B & H buses were ordered with only one entrance/exit door.
