World's Longest Bus

A Chinese bus manufacturer has unveiled what is probably the world's longest bus. The 25-metre bus has five doors, 40 seats, carries up to 300 passengers and, according to a driver, "is flexible when cornering." Lots more pics here. [via]

Vanhool also do one quite similar to this but instead of 40 seats, it has 60. The link to the details:

It's basically built on the same principle as buses here in Vancouver, BC, Canada and elsewhere, so of course it is flexible. The problem is, the more "trailers" or w/e you call them that you add on, the harder and more pain in the ass it is to back up when you need to.

Iam from Utrecht (Holland)and they have got those huge mofo's since 2002. So 'old news' would be a understatement.
