I've been driving with a D-class license for several years, mainly handling large buses like city buses or tour coaches—anything with more than ten seats is no problem. I can also drive medium-sized buses and small trucks. They feel powerful but require careful handling, especially when turning and parking, as their large size makes them prone to scrapes. During daily driving, I prioritize passenger safety, ensuring good ventilation to prevent motion sickness. The air conditioning system must function properly to avoid excessive heat in summer. Maintenance-wise, I check tire wear frequently, as brake pads tend to wear out quickly. Overall, driving these vehicles requires experience but is quite rewarding, making it suitable for commuter or tourist drivers.
