Bus Driver
Take a city bus, pass the inspection, drive a route and get paid at every stop.
What it is
Bus drivers take a bus from the depot downtown, get it checked by a mechanic, pick a route and stop at every bus stop to let passengers on and off. Every stop pays.
How it works
- Get the Bus driver job at the job centre.
- At the depot press E on the start marker (Start shift). You change into work clothes.
- Walk to a marked bay and press E to take a bus (free).
- Drive into the inspection bay, press E, get out and talk to the mechanic while he checks the bus.
- Drive to the route board and press E to get a route.
- At each stop press E to open the doors. Each stop pays $22–36.
- After the last stop pick a new route, or return the bus and end your shift at the depot.

If it doesn't work: "This stop was not paid" means you were more than 25 metres from the stop, not in the depot bus, or less than 15 seconds after the last stop. "Another bus is being inspected" means the bay is busy: wait.
