Differing views on driving the new electric buses

Dublin Bus has now a significant number of electric buses in its fleet. The mirrors have been replaced with cameras and monitors in the driving cab.

The buses have the classification EW.

It’s interesting, maybe remarkable how drivers consider the new bus. Some think it is a great bus to drive, others think it is shambolic.

A number of drivers complain about the power steering and how difficult it is to turn the bus.

The way of the world.

Anyone who has travelled on the upper deck of the hybrid bus, the class PA bus, will have noticed the continuous loud noise at the rear of the bus.

Is it fair to ask why the TFI moved away from buying Volvo, which were the workhorse of the entire diesel fleet.
