VIDEO: MTA buses collide into each other in Queens 

Cuz they making good money. They set for life.

​@@LaYungFlocktrue

BenTheMiner / MTA Railfanner but xd60 lfsa no type of articulates should be operating in this weather

BenTheMiner / MTA Railfanner even that Q44 sbs that normally uses articulates had a short next gen

Transit True becuase the small buses are better to run in the snow, but the long buses are hard

hey ben i saw ur roblox game i am XSTEPBOI btw

But the MTA goes thru all the trouble of putting belts on. So what went wrong here? This artic clearly had belts on.

just a minor scratch don worry about it

😂out german busses and the ones in Switzerland are ok. Winter tyres is what you need. 😂😂😂

@@milestone_achiever4634 Sure, but they're trailer pushers. Rear wheel drive. During a turn you'll get slightly different traction on your inside and outside wheels. The operator's back end kicked out because he was essentially jackknifing the turn. Normally for us it's the back end kicks inward (curbside) while we're servicing stops. A buddy of mine totally wiped out a bus shelter this winter.

@@marcbeebee6969 My company has a fleet of 560 busses. (We're a small city) It'd take half a year to change all the tires. Not to mention storage. Not even to mention cost.

Exactly what i was saying

The Scription

Stop the bus crash

XD60 actually

@@realniggsolo Only New Flyer makes the XD60. NovaBus does in fact make Articulated versions of the LFS buses.

IT WAS A LIGHT TAP!!

Re-read the title.

It was a (what they call in spanish) "un besito"

Mirror strike, probably.

Oh yeah Who would of thought to train articulated bus drivers to operate these types of buses in the snow

For those wondering why the passengers had to get off the bus, no matter how severe the accident, you must evacuate the passengers, take the bus out of service to send it back to the yard, and send a new bus to pick us the passengers so they can continue their trip.

How about give the snow a drug test

zerega moment

@@Bklynkid52 Oh, weird. My company we don't evacuate unless there is a safety hazard. I keep my riders on my bus until the spare operator brings me a new bus. Then I take the new bus and transfer my riders. (Or, more likely, another bus comes past and takes my riders for me) I mean if I have a CNG leak or something it's GTFO, but otherwise we'll just stay on the nice climate controlled bus and chill till supervision lets me move again.

And why would the driver of the white bus need a drug test? It wasnt his fault... only the bendy bus driver needs a drug test, and even so it depends on if there were injury or death

@@ddrdanganvloger2187 You mean Q111* the actual Q11 bus runs on Woodhaven Blvd from Queens Blvd to Howard Beach.

@@ddrdanganvloger2187 It’s ok. 👍🏾😆

The q111 doesn’t go to far Rockaway

@@Journal_Squareee Hey Journal Square. That name suggests that you are probably a Jersey native and now you know so much about Queens bus routes. FYI, the Q111, 113 and 114 all travel from Jamaica to far Rockaway. One of them is a limited route. Quite frankly by this point in time there should be no more limited bus service on this route as many of them have converted to Select Bus Service. Hopefully as time goes on both New Flyer and Nova will advance their drive systems on the artics to handle better in these types of weather conditions. These buses are still being built with the same outdated and useless drive systems. Long live the Neoplan AN460 Transliner. The best articulated bus ever to operate in the snow. I was very fortunate to have witnessed them in the snow on Beeline and they blew all the other artics out the frame. I'm pretty sure Jersey's AN459s handled snow extremely well. Their Nabis can't handle snow well. Their RTS buses handled snow like champs!!

O

😂 winter tyres bro. You are invited to germany or Switzerland or Austria or or or 😅

@@marcbeebee6969 There'd be no place to store all the extra tires if my city used snows. Let alone cost and time to tireswap 500+ busses.

@@DAndyLord seriously you could be the next ceo at boing with those ideas. Did you also marry your cousin? Cause seems to be a expectation for the job 🤣🤣🤣🤣 No room, too expensive 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@marcbeebee6969 It takes 4 hours to swap a whole bus. There are 8 tire techs. There are 500+ busses. It is not feasible. Not to mention that there is simply not the storage space at our garage for more than 3000 tires. I drive for a medium sized Canadian city. We had 44 snow related incidents last winter. 4 serious incidents. (no injuries) We have 500+ busses driving 18 hours a day.

@@DAndyLord how do we manage in our countries? Or all year tyres? Greed is the problem. Go create business, not excuses

Lol brah

This is why mta doesnt send any articulated bus

Woah Spaghetti Trains don’t go everywhere What does this have to do with trains

25 years of driving city buses in Toronto. Never got stuck, never went into the ditch, never lost control of the bus. Common sense just isn't that common. Not even for bus drivers. Oh yeah, and I sureashell never hit another bus.

Hey, Kal-El!

Kal-El and two why are articulates running in snowy weather conditions

That's what I'd love to know

Kal-El the rts bus are the best for new york city im so sad that mta bus is getting rid of them

There are still some rts buses left. They should keep some in service. They are historic buses

@@Patchy682bestbus No problem! 😊

P_atchy called articulated buses

Wrrrd. But now days, the mta uses 40 foots from either its depots or any other depots, also known as "Snow Loans"

No u

@@LoneEevee9063 no u

It won’t exist anymore in a year or 2 after the Queens bus redesign. Your new home route will be the Q1.

@@matthewhernandez8342 I'm aware of the queens bus redesign, and I don't like the idea getting rid of the Q6 for the Q1 to be extended. The Q6 is also slated to get new WiFi buses soon, later to next year.

@@omar.w939 Yeah but, hopefully it means the buses run more often. It’s probably gonna be pretty crowded cause they’re combing two lines.

@@omar.w939 Attest you have a one seat ride to Queens Village

@@matthewhernandez8342 yes of course, they're even going to eliminate some stops along sutphin.

If he would've slowed down, the bus would've gotten stuck in the heavy snow.

Ah, the beloved Quebec crapshacks!

I know

YOU MEAN SNOW CHAINS??

Articulated bus

Unfortunately in transit we serve storm, snow, sleet, ice However, its mta fault for using a bendy in inclement weather

Its not like the XD60 crashed into the Orion VII at 150 MPH, they did technically touch/colide.

Same thing tho

It’s a accordion in the middle of the bus so you can call it both

Bendy bus 😂
