One of the most unappreciated professions you guys make the word go ‘round💯💯

Sup fellow bus driver! I'm finally in the club. Been driving for two weeks now!

As someone who is employed by a public transit bus manufacturer, it is really interesting seeing the other side of the industry and what the driver experience is like. Thanks for the content and keep up the good work!

Been a public bus driver now for 7 years, and it’s the best job I’ve ever had. People love us, people hate us, but it’s still a good job that so few appreciate.

Bro, I'm at the depot at 4:00am. :) I'm 4 years in, and still loving it. I can't imagine doing anything else. I love the brotherhood between drivers.

I live in Ottawa, Canada and I am in the middle of a 9 step process to be hired as a bus driver for the city. I have to tell you I find your videos very informative, helpful and funny at the same time. Thank you so much, you are an invaluable source of information.

Gotta love the folks who ring the bell right at the stop and you fly right past it and get cursed out

Nice too see similarities to bus driving in the UK. Much respect and I feel the bond we share as bus drivers.

My Grandfather was a streetcar motorman and later drove bus in New Orleans from 1923 - 1966. In those days the experienced bus drivers worked a split shift to cover the morning and evening rush hours with the newbies doing the daytime grind and nights. There were a lot of passengers who would skip a bus just to get on his a few minutes later - he never met a stranger, he knew their names and their kids too. When he died no one in the family expected the folks that showed up from al over the city to be in the Second Line. The best days of my life were when we would visit them and he would take me out to ride the streetcars and buses all over the city. They lived just a block from the car/bus barn on Canal and I would spend hours playing in the idle cars looking for one with enough air in the tank to open and close the doors. All the drivers and maintenance guys knew that I was Earl's grandson. They gave me one of the door control handles that the operators kept. Like I said, best days of my life. Thank you for taking me home.

I have driven Greyhound for a solid 14 years and know my job very well. I spoke to you about switching from the Hound to the city and finally am ready to make that leap. Time for a change. I will be binge watching you for the next few weeks. As far as being used to the size, been there done that. However, I am approaching the city bus with a fresh perspective. I only am used to the size, my mirrors and people getting on and off. Everything else is new.

I have great respect for bus drivers they have a lot of chaos to deal with and the public isn’t always pleasant

Fellow bus driver here!! For 5 years now Love your videos glad to find someone else to laugh at our pain with. Keep up the good work!!!

Subscribed my guy! Low key been obsessed with busses my ENTIRE life. My auntie was a transit bus driver when I was a kid in San Jose! I used to go hangout with her at work all the time! So glad to have found this channel!!!

I really enjoyed U, being tired and still maintaining an up beat additude, and serving the public U rock stay safe bruh.

Brother, we got these same issues in Toronto Canada! Nice to see videos to show non drivers what it's like. Certainly feel these stories! 10 years in. 20 to go lol

Brother so glad I've been a fan for a few months. You tell our daily lives so accurately. From a TTC driver in Toronto.

Great video. Lived in Sacramento most of my life and drove bus, but in 1975 got a job offer in Vancouver, BC to drive transit in the city. Never looked back. You bring back a lot of memories to me. Thanks for taking me along for the "ride"

Love this! I drive a city bus in Coventry, England! So many similarities with our processes! I've just finished two weeks of early shifts, (all those checks!). I'm now on lates from today, one extreme to the other. Keep up the good work, Sir!

Hey there, not a bus driver, but I've been riding buses and public transit since high school, in Seattle and now in the Bay Area. That's almost a decade! Very cool to see and ins and outs of what it is to be a bus driver. Much respect to you and your colleagues, you all have to deal with a lot. Stay safe out there!

Thank you for all that you are doing for those in your community

New to the channel, just subscribed! I appreciate my bus drivers! They work so hard, work through bad weather, and my bus drivers know me since I have been on them for years! Bless you!

I am so glad I found your channel. I have been driving transit bus in Salt Lake City for almost 2 years, but have been dealing with the public as a funeral director for over 20 years in Walnut Creek, CA. I love watching your videos, I find them entertaining and the information on them is what I wish my passengers knew. I received the call from management a couple days ago and it looks like my days on the extra board are numbered and start receiving my regular work. Thank you for all you do for your fellow bus operators. I couldn't have said it any better.

Thank you for your service 🙏🏽🙏🏽

As a former train engineer (I've gotten promoted to management), I appreciate the work you do and the pride that you take in your job. Keep striving and be safe. Just liked and subbed.

dude I can't believe this is the first time I've come across your channel, your vibes are excellent. I love riding the bus and transit in general, thank you for everything you do to keep our communities moving.

I love your energy about this job 💪🏻 You seem like a good man

I really enjoyed watching this, you seem like a very kind guy! thanks or sharing a small piece of your life!

Thank you for this video. I wanted to know what was going on in the world today with bus drivers (to see from your perspective). I learned a lot. You are really good at your job. Keep up the good work.

You are so cool! I love getting a glimpse into other people's everyday life, and these videos are a really cool way of breathing creativity into an otherwise potentially mundane job, really cool stuff

I love these videos. In Pittsburgh we deal with a lot of hills and tiny streets... It's cool to know you deal with the same things as far as passengers.

A natural comedian. Thanks for your service.

Bus operator here in Los Angeles (Metro) 14 years running, these videos are pretty funny bro keep it up 💯

I haven't rode SacRt in a few years. Such fun memories in high school riding the 67 from Florin Mall to Arden Mall or the 51 from Florin Mall to Downtown Plaza (Pre Golden 1 Center Days) with friends .It was nice to see part of the video at Florin Towne Centre aka Florin Mall. 😁 Glad you got to use the bathroom! Thanks for your service and great video!

A true worker that carries our society, you are a hero!

i love seeing people work on camera its so relaxing and entertaining

From a UK bus driver (24 years experience) to you, i enjoyed watching that

You got this, and stay safe. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I just got hired as a city bus driver a few weeks ago...my cdl test is Monday

I'm still in training and ya'll are being funny. Buh da buh buh buh I'm lovin' it!

Thank you for your funny, yet educational video! I drive a school bus..sooo thinking about changing employers!

Awesome video as always Keywan. Hope you keeping safe & well 😀😀

I love the energy

I find it quite smart to step on your turn signals, especially when your leaned back, bc you don't have to reach for the turn mechanism stick thing.

Love the video. Also just an idea (not sure if you’re allowed to do this with your agency) I would love to see if you would get a GoPro with a suction cup mount and record yourself deadheading.

Man I’d probably get fired if I did something like this in my system. Awesome stuff. Subbed.

You get breaks?! Today I'm working 733-322, my route is 12 minutes up, 12 minutes down, no breaks, no lay overs, no time adjustments. If I goto the washroom I have to lose a whole trip. But at least it's a short day.

I'm in Hamilton Ontario going through the process of becoming a Transit Operator, very exciting, definitely a little stressful. just want to say thanks for your videos helping feeling i can get through this training period

Thanks for sharing!! Love your office with the nice view!

I hope to become a bus driver after I graduate highschool next year, and work for the MTA NYCT. :>

Thanks for sharing! Very complex buttons and monitors there --- I'd panic if I were to learn how to use them.

You are a man after my own heart , that’s a UK saying ! I have been driving buses 39 years , another 9 years and I can retire ! Keep the vids coming you make me smile .

Great vid! I didn’t think the bell cord was still a thing. Wow! I drive city buses in Reykjavik, Iceland. There’s a button and we see a red light on the gps to let us know to stop at the next. Also a sound too

"extinguidor de fuego aquí" I can read this. Jajaja. Saludos 😎

Great video Keywan

I love this video; nice work

Love the vids keep it up!

It looks fun being a bus driver been a fan of buses all my life :)

Always nice to see another NorCal local!

Cool video man I found your channel by random it just popped up on KZfaq I didn't know what to expect when I was going to watch it but pretty cool I wonder if other bus drivers do KZfaq videos as well

I recently moved from Orange County CA to Knoxville TN and have been really interested for many years about city bus driving. NO more office work for me. I just applied to become a bus driver and have an interview on Tuesday. So, I'm appreciating your videos! Crossing my fingers I'll be joining your bus driving family!

Not sure how I came across your video, but I hope that things are more or less normal and you stayed healthy. That being said, a very interesting video about the job of a bus driver. You've piqued my curiosity

Can’t wait bro I’m hot qualified last week. I’m getting ready for my road test in eastchester

Seeing a bunch of clips on the Johnny Depp trial and topics on war, this is exactly what I need. For once the youtube algorithm works exactly like they should. Love your clips Keywan, greetings from Sweden!

Nice and informative vid!

The algorithm brought me here, and I'm glad it did, awesome insight. Bus drivers are awesome, you all put up with some bullshit and are totally underappreciated. I hope your channel blows up man. All hail the algorithm. Edit: Low key always wanted to drive a bus ha!

I have been catching the bus all my life, never thoughts one day I became a bus driver. After I left my corporate job and did odd jobs. Then I got an interviews and passed all process and training. Got my shifts and next things its been 5 years. I loved been outside and greeting passengers and some becomes friends. There's no days the same, one day you get stuck in traffic or accidents or some day your carrying passengers over the limits. How fast time passed and now pandemic hits my shifts got cut due to locked down.

So cool this guys deserve more subs

I start training next week and these videos are good for motivation!

Nice video mate

Very good content. Greetings from Poland

I do early morning shift for UTA here in Utah. I love bus driving I have done it for 6 years now. Thank you for these videos

Love your videos

Great view

I am excites to start driving buses soon.. Im gunna drive mci coaches for my local transit agency

Hey man, fellow bus and coach driver from the UK here! Wait, what, indicators on the foot?!! Oh, and all the same problems over here as well...

I wanted to be a busdriver since I was 7 years old. I could have been a doctor, lawyer, business executive, etc. I was driving a wholesale food delivery truck and 5 years In, I found out a bus company was hiring and training. I trained after my full-time job then started driving city transit busses plus school bus charters. Two years in I went to full-time driving busses when an opening came up for full-time. School bus in the morning and transit in the afternoon. I would pick up hours dispatching on weekends. The manager and I got along and 6 months into full-time he had me start driving motor coach tour busses on weekends. Eventually the school bus contract was gone and a few years later the coach company was bought out and moved. I remained in transit busses for 34 years. I always had side jobs of different sorts. Transit was good to me. I made decent money, have a pension, a house, and I am no longer driving. I did it for 34 years and the last 4 years of it I ended up not liking the job. That clientele wasn't what it one was. I am glad to no longer be doing it.

Drove here in Atlanta for 5 years. I remember them days

Just joined your channel to support you and I really liked that video! I learned truck driving at the German army back in time and for the road test I had to drive into the pittoresque historic downtown of a small village with narrow roads and to correctly turn left or right without taking down the traffic light poles, traffic signs or anything else with me - so wide turns. Used to be 40 ton trucks with trailer. Your job is very important as is public transit in general - but not highly enough regarded in the US. For a challenge - drive a MTA city transit bus in Manhattan NY through the West village ;-) I sent something Batman related to you to say thank you :-)

Quite interesting to see, how the job of a bus driver is different in other countries! I'm doing a Bus Driver apprenticeship in Germany and our early shift starts at 3:45am. Also the things in the bus are quite different to! You just got a new Subscriber :)

This is new to me and cool to see different career vlogs

Been there, done it for 31 years. I am finally retired.❤ Loving your videos. You do a great job. 18 minute break , Wow? You are lucky. I have met wonderful people, Some...great people. . Enjoyed working with my co workers. So many great memories. . Lol, yeah the spray, I can relate. Yes, pull the cord please..Split shifts 12-13 hour days.

Been a bus driver for 12 years, love ur video

Bus driver life. Checking in from Las Vegas

Interesting, thanks for posting.

I definitely enjoyed watching the video.

I love how you take care of your bus. These are good videos to show kids. They need to know that you can still make an honest living AND be a KZfaqr. (Not that being a KZfaqr isn’t honest, but you know what I mean.) 😉

Thats my daddy makeing a video I’m his daughter I still do better video’s though

Sacramento has an amazing transit system. The LRT system was built quite affordably although it was quite slow through downtown.

It's interesting seeing what it's like being a Bus Driver. Take care from Ireland.

That is what I do before I drive my bus, I close the door and spray the driver area down with Lysol and I wipe everything down with my Lysol wipes including the phone and directional system. And I wipe down the seat adjust everything including the mirrors. I drove a city transit bus in Ohio and now I drive for Northern Kentucky. I've been driving in Kentucky now for 3 months and so far I like it

Turning on the signals with your foot, never seen that! Pretty fascinating

I used to drive a bus in downtown L.A. DASH....good times great video

and a bus rider this is something i enjoy

awesome video! my daughter says she wants to drive a bus when she grows up.

I am a bus driver in Poland and its rly interesting for me :)

Greetings from DART FIRST STATE!!!!! enjoyed this video!!!!!!

I'm new and this is the first video I clicked on, it was in my mentions. Great video by the way.

Sac Town. 🙌🏾 (New Subscriber) This was a great video! It was funny and motivational. Kind of made me miss my city but I’m looking forward to driving soon.

The old streetcar system used a two-person approach: an operator and a conductor. This would be welcome on most big-city buses that I've traveled on.

I can't tell you how excited I was that the toilet was open for you! I was praying! 🤣 I love the foldable seats. Unfortunately the buses where I am only have the 10 seats near the front (5 on each side) that fold. They just fold up (no button).
