And guess where the electrics are on most of them, near the front doors - water ingress- fizz bang - ooh its died! The Bus that is.
Lessons have been learned though - most of the electrics are now in a panel behind the driver.In new buses.
However most of our buses are not so new.
In my relatively short career as a bus driver (7 years), I have not had to deal with floods, luckily - although I'm sure a bus can deal with up to a minor flood if you take it slowly, much like a car.I am much more impressed with them in the snow and ice to be honest as per this video in a bus that is traditionally useless in snow.
