    Nice bus! We also have that bus in Belgium. This bus is operated by the Flemish operater De Lijn, which means "The Line". The serie is from 2901 to 2924.
    Greetings from Sri Lankan boy in Belgium.

      Very True and 14 of those beautiful electric VDL's will come to Sint-niklaas due the 2 tunnels (aka bridges) are too low for high buses to go under so hopefully the new Citea's will do the job! 🚍🚍🚍

    I am a public transport bus driver in the netherlands, and we also drive without seatbelt, so i am used to it. But the reason is, in the netherlands, if a bus have a maximum speed of 85 km/h, no seatbelt is required for the driver

    I work as a busdriver in public trtansport in the Netherlands and we're used to drive without a seatbelt on the city busses, We also have busses wich are allowed to drive 100 km/h and of course there you have to wear a seatbelt.

    Very smart looking vehicle. Great plus for the dashboard ❤ as a driver difficoulties with reaching good position this is must try out. In Finland at Kotka region are having these smaller 12 meter versions in local services. I enjoyed previous Citeas LLE in Tampere local services when I was professional driver but most colleagues prefer Volvos, Scanias and Solarises...
    I am still intrested to see if VDL can deliver approx 15 meter long 6x2 bogie verision with 1+2+1 door layout 😊 If chance comes of course test drive The new one

    Looks nice; VDL should design a double-deck model and try to sell it to Arriva in the UK and/or the BVG in Berlin.
    This looks far better than the newer AD Enviro MMC/EV models and the newer Wrightbus StreetDeck models we get over here in England.

    Great that you also look the passenger side. It seems that most busses are build only for drivers... or are bought for the driver, and are terrible ro travel as a passenger. Noisy, bumpy, creaky... Like they are trying to scare away passengers from the buss.

      Don't you realize the driver is in the same noisy, bumpy, creaky bus? But he's there 8 hrs a day. Actually VDL tends to make the driver cabin very inconvenient, like they forget there's someone working there. First gen Ambassador was terrible, and so are the Futura models (with exception of the DD which actually has a spacious cabin).

      @@bussmagasinet1 As long as people are allowed to stand in the bus, it shouldn't be mandatory to wear a seatbelt for your own safety. If you are really unlucky, you could be attacked by a passenger while you are strapped. Besides that, the freedom of movement is also a thing. Especially when driving in a crowded city, with bikes and pedestrians all over the place, overtaking you left and right. You'd want freedom of movement to be able to freely check your shoulders.
      To me a seatbelt in a citybus is not necessary.
