Acela Express Posted October 8, 2011 Share #130 Posted October 8, 2011 Congratulations, prgordo! I deal with Manhattan-life traffic as an operator at Flatbush depot, and it's become easier to deal with as each day goes by. You just need to be alert 100%, and it will man you up to deal with any scenario. But, being that part is over with, get focused for line training, as you'll be dealing with the actual public, no more trolley brake, and your line instructor- who's another fellow operator at the depot you'll choose. It's a different ball game when you're dealing with idiot passengers. lol (I say it like it is) Keep the thread updated. Again, congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acela Express Posted October 12, 2011 Share #141 Posted October 12, 2011 hey guys, im 19 years old just wornder whats the age for taking the mta exams for B/O and i have an iep diploma (individual education program) and im new to this forums Welcome to NYCTF. I filed for Bus Operator in 2005 and took the exam in 2006, just before I turned 19. Though you can take the exam at your age, you're not eligbile til you're 21 years of age, with a driver's license of 3 years along with a CDL Class B Permit - passenger endorsement and no restrictions (except for A3 - no medical). And there's no education requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
