(sorry for the dead thread resurrection ... just looking for old stories, like Zazu's coffee backpack ... and found this)

Does this mean that you have to call in 3,800 Signal 4's every day during lovebug season? What about a rainstorm?

Love bugs are not signal 4's. They are points.

Also, since I stopped driving buses, I found this video. Very interesting. I would actually love to go over to Germany and take this course, were I planning on being a bus driver again.

And I would love to drive this.

Being an ex-ambulance guy we had to take EVOC training regularly. Making a big vehicle change course quickly is possible, but you only get one change of direction for free. The following change of course if done incorrectly will probably kill you and your passengers.


I was looking at one of those articulated busses for converting it into an RV. Someone had bought one and stripped it out planning on putting a hot tub in for limo style parties. Then the guy got a DUI, so with no license his business plan was sunk. I could have gotten it for about 2 grand, and this was a good one. I knew the bus company he got it from.

Anyway, I decided that 55 feet long was too much. Of course, with my old decrepit RV and 20 foot trailer, I'm now just as long.

Woohoo! He would probably just sit in a parking lot and we'd never know the difference!
