They don't use a  paper map anymore for the test.  Since MTA took over the exams. It's much easy now.  They ask where this place is or park.

what number did you call?

I was up in the Bronx today. I seen a training bus and  someone make a right turn on 231 and Riverdale ave good job on that turn. keep it up and good luck.

Call HR. 

EXAM 4600 has been  (AMENDED) Aug 7 - Sep 3, 2013

So what's going on with the new bus operators. How is work and anyone else getting called.

Which turn right or left.

The pivot point is the point where the rear axle will pivot or starts to turn during a right or left 

it's not only them but the bus drivers that are showing them the route will see the big boss.

Get you paid from day 1. You have 2 types of  training. The first one is to Learn how to drive for MTA 1-6 days and take a 19A road test on day 7 you must qualify if not then you must get more training on day 8 your next road test day 9. If you don't qualify You have one more shot day 10. You must qualify if you want to go on to the second part of the training.If you don't pass  by day 10 your done. You will have to wait 5 years to come back. If qualify then you move on to second part which is Line-training. Whatever depot you get you need to learn all the lines in that depot it's about  4 weeks of training. Once your done with line- training and have no problems then you will graduate you will get your wheelchair key and badge. 

I forgot if you only have a CDL permit you need to take the dmv road test you only have 2 tries to pass it.If you don't pass it your done.

                                                                            Good luck all 

what turns are you having a problem with.

Your welcome.

                                              TIPS OF THE DAY

Take your time and think before you do something.

Call out everything from the side of your bus and front. slow down and cover your brake when making a turn.

Stay 4.ft away from the park cars.

Stop when someone is crossing or a bilker is on the side of your bus just stop let them go.

Stop before the stop sign.

Remember to look in all of your mirrors from 1,2,3.

When there is a yellow light slow down and watch the cross-walk.

When pulling away from a bus stop watch and make sure your front door is clear and  closed then look in your right side  mirror to make sure everything is clear look in mirror # 2 and watch your rear side windows to see if anyone is running up on the side of your bus. Then put your signal on look in your left mirror and also turn your head to make sure no one is running across the street when it's safe to do so  move your bus. 

                                                        GOOD LUCK ALL .

Yup left acute turn.  On Acute Angle turn You must turn sooner.

Start your turn when your front bumper gets to the opposite corner.

Watch how this driver line up the front bumper and he waited when it was safe to move. VERY GOOD 

YOU WILL BE MAKING THIS TURN

You don't want to do this when making this turn so remember to watch where you line up your front bumper. Watch the other side of the street for park cars.

Watch how this driver made the turn. he didn't line up his front bumper. If there were park cars or vans on the corner he would of never made it.
