I hate that these require that the parking brake be released before you can put the bus in gear. I'm used to shifting into gear first, then releasing the parking brake. This makes it a last line of defense (say for instance a kid nearly misses the bus or something else happens where you forget to shift to neutral, but you still have the parking brake on and it stops the bus from moving). Not to mention, this requirement now makes it impossible to "check" your parking brake during pre-trip. What were they thinking? I'll stick with my diesel Thomas Saf-T-Liner C2.
@@robloxelevatorsandreactorc2108 For the diesel Vision, the parking brake has nothing to do with being able to shift into gear. Only on the electric Blue Birds must you have the parking brake off before you can go into reverse or forward. I understand having interlocks with the seat belt and the door, but not the parking brake since I'm used to always releasing that last before taking my foot off the brake.
