    All I can say is fair play to the driver, I'd say the passengers were grateful for getting home; unfortunately this is probably just practice for the inevitable belt of snow we'll be getting shortly 

    Air intake is at the O/s or N/s rear approximately 1.5 mtrs high so as long as the Bus is driven steadily with no acting the muppet,all will be well.

    As with the snow,a Busdrivers bigger problems come from the number of individuals who will not stand for a Bus getting out in front of them and who will actively attempt to prevent a Bus from making headway.


    Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.

    Would DB be liable for any damage to items in bags, costs of cleaning clothes as a result of the water?

    Not having a knock, I'd much rather get home on time with wet feet than sit all night waiting for floods to subside.

    Good on that driver.
