Apparently there was a long wait for the gear part to arrive so we had to drive this one bus with no reverse gear for nearly 2 mths! We were told to make sure not to get up close to anything and that it was not a legal requirement for buses like it is for cars. Can anyone out there tell me if this is the case. Even our union rep said it was legal. Sounds wrong to me, would appreciate someone with the correct legal knowledge please to answer. Thanks.
