Re: BACKACHE You need a tailbone workout , 43 cans of carlsberg export and a good walk (around 127 miles) should do the trick .

Re: BACKACHE Nah i get it alot aswell, especially on the scanie L113's as the steering wheel dosnt adjust and being so tall i have to sit right back to avoid hitting my leg on the stupid bit of dash and am always leaning forward to turn the wheel.
Sign em off if there not comfortable to drive. |

Re: BACKACHE I know this isn't very helpful, but the only thing that sorted out my back pain was to get away from driving buses for a while.

Re: BACKACHE When you reach your outer terminus stretch and twist, you seize up in the same position for 8hrs.

Re: BACKACHE Something that Ive always thought was pretty bad is that Ive seen that some drivers have to bend forwards to reach the ticket machine. I think thats something for the designers however!

Re: BACKACHE The last thing bus designers think about is driver comfort.
