why don’t we wear seatbelts on the bus?

1.39K viewsOther

I’m currently on a very crowded bus with many people standing up, even though we are on highways. Why can I stand unsecured while on the bus? Is it a matter of being able to safely get people out in an emergency? Thanks!

edit: I’m in Canada 🇨🇦

I drive a city bus. I was witness to the little 2 seater BMW convertible trying to go around another city bus at around 75 Km/hour and hitting the back left corner of the bus. The car was a wreck, like needed a hoist and a flatbed to move because it wasn’t towable in its condition.

The bus was sent back to the yard out of due diligence. It was mostly undamaged and could have continued in service.

Mass always wins in a collision, the people on board heard a resounding bang but felt only the slightest bump.

Don’t get hit by a train or a tandem logging truck you will die. Even at very low speed

The driver of the BMW was shaken up and bruised but otherwise fine BMW makes really good cars.
