Maybe pointing out diversion routes. So saying if we get Diverted rather than straight it's right here or something.
Quote from: BlackCountryBusSpotter on August 09, 2024, 03:53:01 PMA couple of weeks ago I was on the 39 I think and alongside out driver there was another Driver stood by the cab not chatting to our driver but I think assessing them I've heard the term Buddy Driving what is this is like for a Driving/Pilots test where you are Route and veichle trained but a more senior driver is assessing your first solo drive. Or is it one senior driver showing the newer driver assuming they are new the Veichle's characteristics or the route so they basically look at how the senior driver is driving the vehicle on the route and they then drive the next shift. At first I thought it was a colleague going home but they remained on the bus til the terminus where I got of to see family. There had been On the bus before I got On in Walsall to so I gathered our driver who would be driving was being assessed
