Manoeuvring a double decker bus is easier said than done! You will learn to safely negotiate a pre-designed course with an experienced instructor as your passenger. This large scale driving activity will show you what life is like on the buses! The short wheel base and long overhang takes time to adjust to, but soon you will be manoeuvring confidently into coned garages, circumnavigating roundabouts and pulling out of T-junctions in the vehicle. You will also learn to stop accurately and efficiently at a bus stop! Can you change gear smoothly going down the gears as well as up? It’s easy if you know how to double the clutch. Invite passengers along for the ride!
Group Size: Tuition is shared with 5 other voucher holders.
You will spend 30 minutes at the wheel of the double decker bus.
