I enjoy your deliberate pointing out of everything you are checking and doing. Reminds me of all the videos I’ve watched on Japanese transportation videos (i.e. trains, buses, etc…). Excellent videos! Cheers.
I am impressed at how diligent you are with your pre-trip inspection. It is so easy for people to be lazy and take shortcuts. I would feel very safe riding on your bus!
@adventureoflinkmk2 Just so you know James not only Drives the Buses he is actually 1 of the owners of the Company.i assume this guy is trying to be and do what james does and i also assume James and the peoria charter has allowed him to film on there buses.
Nice video my dude except that's not UIC campus but UC (University of Chicago). 59th Woodlawn, Midway Parkway & Jewels on Cottage Grove. Use to work for UC and I'm a grad from UIUC. Champaign has changed greatly since I left but main campus is the same. Great visuals...
Albert, you are quite meticulous and that is cool and very Japanese. Although, I am wondering, is that your personal vacuum or company property? And, how does the cleaning crew react you "fixing" their work? I also liked the camera stability in this video... no nausea and makes for good ASMR :) Nice job.
Thank you for the kind words! The vacuum is company property. I will do whatever it takes to have a clean bus for myself and my passengers, regardless of how wash crew feels. This was filmed with a static mount, but the caveat is I cannot film with passengers on board since it takes up a couple seats and is very obvious.
@9:15, you should buy a $36 shop-stick and keep with you at all times, like I do keep it my Toyota Tacoma and take it with me on my Honda Goldwing when I travel, you just never know when you need it.
As long as you keep lose hanging items away and exercise caution, it's a good way to visually and audibly check first engine start of the day. You could say driving or walking up the entrance stairs are inherently dangerous and fatal too, but with caution incidents are avoided.
@alblua nope not me I have a friend who races cars lost his hand when a belt broke. We just had a driver get injured badly while under the hood of a running bus engine. First Student now has a policy all engines must be turned off and drivers must have keys in pocket when inspecting or adding fluids.
