Safety Tips On The Portland Party Bus

By Della Monroe


The party bus is an unusual yet interesting venue for parties and celebrations of those special occasions. It is more convenient than other venues because you do not have to clean up after the event. It is not a fixed address, such as a building or a centre, and it is rented for the occasion. But there are some rules of thumb that you should take into account if you use the Portland party bus. This is not about putting a damper on the party, but these rules are nevertheless sensible and should be observed.

Driving a bus is a massive responsibility. The vehicle is exceptionally large, much larger than an ordinary car. It also transports far more passengers, so the driver has a bigger responsibility than you would in your private vehicle. For this reason, there are certain guidelines that should be observed in how you deal with the driver, so as to ensure that you do not distract them or impede their driving ability.

Firstly, never argue with the driver. No matter what the driver does, or their attitude, do not try to start an argument with them. For example, if they tell you to stop doing something, stop doing it. Do not try to backchat them or explain why you should continue doing it. This is because road rage, or irritation, can cause the driver to drive badly or cause their judgment to deteriorate.

The driver is legally obliged to obey all rules of the road in Portland OR. Do not ask the driver to do something that is illegal or that is dangerous to other road users.

Secondly, and once again no matter what the situation in the bus, do not offer the driver drinks or try to involve them in the party. The driver is not legally allowed to consume alcohol in the bus so do not try to offer them any. You may think that the party atmosphere is exciting and that the driver should be included, but they are not allowed to drink while driving and they are probably just going to say no politely. Do not try to insist.

Low bridges are an obvious hazard. The bus is checked by traffic authorities to ensure roadworthiness, but passengers should be aware of this issue.

For example, a low bridge can be dangerous to passengers who are on the top deck of the bus and trying to rise up too high. The bus is checked by the authorities to see whether it is roadworthy, but passengers who try stunts on top of it can be seriously injured or killed.

Generally speaking, rowdy or drunken behavior is dangerous to the driving of the bus and should not be allowed to distract the driver. The bus is a party vehicle but even so you should still try to restrict yourself from impairing the driver's ability to drive the bus.
