Do you feel safe that the bus is okay to continue driving?

Yes, I would like to drive to a safer spot to take a look at the side of the bus.
00:31
Right now, I'm on a very busy road on my way to Green Acres.
00:37
10-4, yes. Can you please pull over to a safe spot and assess the damage? If everything is okay, you feel safe driving.
00:44
Please continue your route and then just ride it up when you return.
00:48
Okay.
00:50
I'm trying to find the address here somewhere.
00:55
Oh,
00:57
boy.
01:00
Could you write down 250,
01:03
I mean 205 as a point of reference for me? Yep, what's this street name, 205 what?
01:14
I'm on Cohas right now,
01:20
turning into...
01:25
Green Acres, and yes, there is damage to the bus now that I can see down at the window in front of the service door.
01:37
10-4. If you look at the bus and you feel like it's okay to keep driving, then that's great.
01:43
If not, please let me know so I can see if I can get somebody out there as soon as 8-10-7.

Well, in a moment, I'll be here at Green Acres, and I'll assess the situation better and get back to you.

02:36
The side window to the front of the entry service door is shattered, but I can drive, I believe, safely the way it is.
02:49
The door does work.
02:52
161, is it shattered meaning glass or is it shattered meaning crack and that the kids can just not sit in that area so that way nobody's sitting there?
03:03
The glass is shattered, but it is nowhere near where the children sit because it is the window right before the service store.
03:16
I see no way for the glass to get in their way, really.
03:23
Okay, 10-4.
03:25
Let me just double-check with maintenance,
03:28
because we don't want you to, like, hit a bump, and then the glass move around and accidentally go near a child.
03:35
So hang on, please.
03:37
I understand it.
03:38
And totally agree.

10-4.
