You thought you could drive well ?

Then check this video ! Insane driving by this German bus driver.

YouTube - Wetten Dass: Bus wenden auf einer Brücke

[LotusLocost]

Can't understand what this has to do with being a good driver?
He is good at turning a bus in a tight bridge.
Doesn't mean he is an exceptional driver on the road and in traffic.

He knows very well where his wheels are, thats it.

He knows very well where his wheels are, thats it.

Looks to me like the edge of the bridge had a raised lip. So he was able to FEEL the tyres reach the edge .... really any of us coudl have done it

[Jack_Bauer]

Bah, he didn't even make it in the time limit!

Did this really deserve a thread all of its own Drakkie?

Haha in this case it's rather a footbrake turn...

[nota]

To pass my articulated-truck driving test (at age 18) I was required to reverse-park, at first attempt ..

a conventional-cab Dodge truck (no power steer) with 28ft trailer
from a two-lane road going through a suburban shopping centre
which was reasonably busy at the time including parked cars etc
into a brick-walled laneway perpendicular to the roadway
that had less than 4ft of spare room each side
without ever shifting from reverse gear
and back it in the length of the truck

[Turbo.Jenkens]

Did he finish? I was watching it but got distracted by paint drying on the wall. <(yaaawwwn)>

[kingofthering]

Why would any sane person want to make a 180 deg. turn on such a narrow road w/o a guardrail?

[VtecMini]

Only the Germans could make light entertainment from u-turns...
