I have been a bus driver since late 2006. I know the inside story, the scoop, the down low dirt of what it takes to be a bus driver, how to handle kids and adults, and how to survive on the "streets" so to speak. I used to have a blog, feel free to browse it or ask me a question here.

What is the difference between a sequential flashing system and a non-Sequential sequential flashing system?

Why are some strokes mounted in the back while others are up front while others are midship? Why are some buses equipped but some not? Why are they usually white/clear instead of amber like other vehicles? Why do some flash once, some twice, others 4

Asked by Zack about 5 years ago

Strobes are there for visibility. Sometimes its just the preference of the manufacturer as to where to put it and how its installed. The newer strobes flash brighter and more often for higher visibility.
