Why do bus drivers open the doors at railroads?

Asked by Sherry about 6 years ago

We have to listen for the trains as well as look for them. It's part of our safety procedure. Stop. Look. Listen. We cannot always count on the railroad crossing arms to work properly.

Hi I see you have been asked a lot of questions recently but I just have to ask mine sorry. So with these protests going on what do you do if protesters are throwing things on the bus, ripping things off, climbing on it, or even trying to board?

Asked by Jamie about 6 years ago

1. Not even attempt to put myself in harms way.

2. If i happen across a group of angry violent protesters, do not stop, keep going. They either move or get squished.

3. I have no issue with peaceful protests but those are the ones that aren't blocking roads and causing violence and mayhem.
