:lol:
Is it aussie?
Ok, I watched it with sound off so wouldn't have heard the accents
:? is it an aussie fire truck? I wouldn't have a clue? :?

If I was wrong in my original post though, then fair enough!

Those Ausie fire trucks are purpose built. They obviously needed to get somewhere. Even when its raining in auzzie they get bush fires.

Epic IMO.

That school bus was soo obvious. I dont think they had any other choice and all knew it was going to happen.

Err... Use the brakes and don't drive into it? :?

Seriously, what sort of Dickhead thinks it's ok to fill your employers vehicle with flood water (especially one worth as much as a bus) and that the chance of getting marooned in the middle of the flood with the bus full of kids, is preferable to them not getting home on time, by not trying to go through it. What a wanker.

Might not have had any choice. Kids have got to get home.
It wasnt damaging the bus since the intakes are higher up. Plus the floors are designed to free flow water since its public transport. Although trains do not go in the water they are designed in a way that flood water escapes as easily as it enters.

Meh.
Buses aren't designed to take immersion or to 'free flow' that volume of water and I can assure you categoricaly that flood water does not feature in any way in the design specification of trains (except for within the confines of the toilet cubicle).

I was going to clarify/explain all that, but I can't be arsed so it'll just be left like that!

Driver :- "Uhhh boss, have you seen the weather report for today? I'm not sure it'd be too wise to go ahead with the school run today having personally experienced the past couple months weather. Maybe we should call the school."

Boss :- "Don't you worry your pretty little head about it. You leave the decision making to me... That's why I'm paid more than you."

Driver :- "Okaaaaaay"
