Would-be drivers get behind the wheel at free Kinchbus Try Drive event
Drivers keen to get behind the wheel of a bus had their wishes come true at a free Kinchbus Try Drive event.
Almost 30 car drivers had a crack at manoeuvring a bus around Loughborough University’s coach park putting their ability to start, stop, steer and reverse a bus to the test.
There was also lots of information about buses and the role of a bus driver. Kinchbus managers were there to show drivers the ropes and Kinchbus bus drivers helped the visitors get on the move.
Five of the drivers were so interested in exploring a career on the buses that they signed up for the free medical check which is one of the first steps towards joining the Kinchbus academy for new recruits.
