I rode a 10XX years ago and it was definitely in the same shape as #1065. Expand Vibrating extremely hard would be the (locally) preferred alternative here. I've been lifted out of my seat on more than one occasion from buses travelling at high speeds over that pavement. Personally, it's worse on artics, cause you have that knockback, for lack of better term, if you're sitting in the rear of the bus. It's not like going over rumble strips, the bus is basically taking a miniature speed bump at highway speeds. For buses in worse shape (like 1065 apparently), I imagine it has to feel like the bus is falling apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to hold on to the poles to prevent me from falling. I remember riding #1166 two years ago in the summer time and the bus had to run on the Dan Ryan because of some reroute, it was going 55 mph it was a little jumpy until it went up the ramp towards 95th where I got off at. Another issue is that there water was dripping from one of the light fixtures most likely because of the effects of the AC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
