Overview

At Explorer Dubai Ltd., we have several bus drivers available to transport persons to and from work, and school and also take them to town for leisurely activities such as shopping. 

Ugandan drivers hop in the seats of a wide range of vehicles. Buses that can seat more than sixty passengers fall into this category. So, we have complete faith that our bus drivers will be okay with adjusting to the roads in Bahrain or learning the local traffic laws and customs.

We know navigating your vehicle up and down the steep incline is a hassle, but you won’t find that here in Bahrain. The topography of Bahrain is relatively flat, so you will only be spending a little time driving up and down hills.

This is because all of Bahrain’s roads are entirely level. The topography of Bahrain is flat, so you won’t have to push your bike up any hills. Highways are all level. The average height difference across Bahrain is 61 meters (200 ft). The mountain known as Jabal ad Dukhan, which has an official height of 122 meters, is Bahrain’s highest peak (400 ft). The Persian Gulf found in Bahrain is its lowest point. The Bahraini bike path also features a number of straight sections, as well as under and overpasses. It’s incredible, right?

Security And Well-Being Of Ugandan Drivers

Alertness

Moving a large vehicle requires a lot of physical effort. As a result, Uganda’s professional drivers know they frequently spend many hours daily on the road. You can’t be as sharp and alert if you’re exhausted. Experienced drivers know there are many ways to keep alert behind the wheel. Drowsy or sleepy drivers pose a serious threat to themselves and others on the road because they are likelier to nod off at the wheel and crash into an animal or another vehicle. They know that the vehicle they are operating is vast and powerful.

Maintaining Energy and Not Tiredness

Keep yourself from getting tired in the first place, and you’ll be more likely to stay awake while behind the wheel. Our main tips for heavy drivers include the following:

Make sleep a priority.

Get plenty of rest the night before setting out on a long journey. When fatigued, you shouldn’t embark on a long trip.

Planning Your Trip Timing

Your body will adjust to sleeping at the same time each night. You should avoid driving at these times due to fatigue. When planning a long trip, it’s best to do so during the hours you’d typically be awake. Due to nighttime driving restrictions, this may only sometimes be possible in some parts of Dubai. Taking extra safety measures is essential if you must drive at night.

Try To Avoid Medication.

A drowsy state is a possible side effect of some medications. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist when you doubt how a medication might affect your ability to drive.

whether the drug is legally available over the counter or required a doctor’s prescription.

Tablets for the common cold, antihistamines, and antiallergy medications are all examples of commonly used medicines that can induce sleepiness. It is much safer to drive with cold or allergy symptoms than to take medications that could make you sleepy while behind the wheel.

Stay Away From Drugs.

To date, no medication has been developed that effectively counteracts fatigue. It’s possible to stay awake for a while on specific substances, but that doesn’t mean you’ll be alert. Your fatigue may even increase after you’ve stopped taking them. Pull over immediately if you’ve already started driving and noticed that you’re getting sleepy. You’ll recognize the signs of fatigue when you feel them. In addition, the effort required to maintain eye closure may cause you to yawn or cause you to blink more frequently.

If You’ve Been Drinking, Don’t Get Behind The Wheel.

Driving any automobile vehicle under the influence of alcohol, it is more challenging to make sound decisions and evaluate potential dangers, such as the relative speeds of your vehicle and those around you. Because of this, judging distances is hampered. In addition to boosting your confidence, alcohol can make you feel more daring than you would be. It hinders your ability to focus and multitask and slows your reaction time.

Time increases the likelihood of a collision.

Some drunk drivers believe they are safer on the road. This is entirely inaccurate. Accidents involving alcohol often have tragic outcomes.

Get Some Downtime Every So Often.

Quick breaks help maintain focus. Just take them before you start feeling tired. Keep your daily driving time under 10 hours.

Check the vehicle over by walking all around it. Doing light physical activity, such as running in place or touching your knees or toes, can also help.

 Safe And Healthy Driving

Concentrate On Driving Safely.

Counting cars of varying numbers is just one activity that can be done to keep the mind active. Plates or jot down landmarks on a map as you approach them. Create your own strategies for maintaining focus while travelling for work. It’s easy to get bored driving on a long, straight road, especially at night.

Pay Attention To What You Eat

Always opt for fresh produce over canned or frozen. Pack these items for your next trip to avoid feeling sleepy after eating. If you’re going on a long trip, avoid carb-heavy foods like bread, pasta, potatoes, pies, and French fries. Avoid eating a large meal when driving because it will make you sleepy. Eating more often and in smaller portions can help you maintain energy and focus.

Keep Your Convenience In Mind

Drivers must take the time to adjust their seats to the perfect position for them. When you’re not at ease, you lose energy faster.

as a result, you divert your attention away from the road less frequently.

Here’s What You Ought To Do If You Have A Movable Seat:

Place your back and shoulders firmly against the back of the chair. 

1. Place your bare feet on the floor in front of the chair.
2. Place yourself where you can easily reach the pedals with your feet.
3. Fourth, move your seat forward and back until your foot touches the floor when you depress the clutch, but your knee is still slightly bent (about 15 to 20 degrees).
4. Don’t Lose Your Head
5. Maintain as much composure as you can. Keep the windows and vents open to let in some fresh air if the weather permits.
6. If there’s an air conditioner in the car, use it.
7. Ensure no cans or clipboards are lying around the car before getting behind the wheel. It’s essential to watch out for anything on the cab floor that could prevent your foot from reaching the pedals. Verify that the clutch, brake, and gas pedals all reach the floor when depressed.
8. If your car is parked on the street, you should approach it from the front, with traffic moving toward you.
9. Get out facing the cab as you get out.
10. However, keep an eye out for oncoming vehicles.
11. Be cautious getting into and out of the cab. It’s simple to injure yourself in this world. So you should always use the vehicle’s steps.
12. Footholds and handrails. Make sure you are facing the cab when you get in or out.
13. In no circumstances should you ever jump from a moving vehicle?
14. Caution should be exercised if stepping on a tire to enter or exit the cab, as this could cause slips and falls if the tire is wet. Slippery tires are a common problem. As a result, you could slip and fall. And get hurt or even get in the way of oncoming traffic.

What Kind Of Bus Drivers Do We Have?

School bus drivers

They pick up and drop off students at school and home. On school days, our drivers collect students in the morning and drop them off at home after school in the afternoons. Our bus drivers also take students on planned field trips and to sporting events, among others. In carrying out their tasks, they do the following:

They make sure the children are safe getting on and off the bus.

They make sure the needs of children with reduced mobility are met.

They serve as road marshals who keep order on the school bus.

They know the school rules and enforce good conduct on the bus.

They relay disciplinary cases to the school or parents for action.

Upcountry and city bus drivers

These bus drivers transport passengers between cities, towns, and villages. They usually pick up and drop off passengers at bus stations in rural and urban areas. They also do the following:

They make sure all passengers have a valid ticket or have paid to ride the bus.

They sell tickets to passengers when seats are still available on the bus.

They keep track of when passengers get on or off the bus.

They help passengers load and unload baggage on and off the bus.

Charter bus drivers

Our bus drivers may be asked to take people on chartered trips or tours of cities and small towns. These trips are popular with tourists and are prearranged to suit their holiday schedules. Chartered bus drivers do the following:

They drive the bus while the temperature, lighting, and air conditioning are set to make sure the passengers are comfortable.

They always keep their word and stay on schedule.

They help people with their bags and luggage as they get on and off the bus.

They make sure that all the people who are supposed to be on the trip are there before and after it.

They also serve as tour guides for passengers when they ask for such guidance.

Are Ugandan Bus Drivers Physically Strong Enough To Work In Bahrain?

Oh, yes, indeed! Our bus drivers are always in excellent health, and they protect the health of the people who depend on them. Unfortunately, in many countries, bus drivers have one of the highest rates of getting hurt or sick of any job. This is primarily due to vehicle accidents (or the lack thereof). However, our drivers always make sure their vehicles are roadworthy and stick to traffic rules to minimize this statistic to almost zero.

Why Are Ugandans In High Demand In Bahraini Homes And Offices?

Once you recruit any of our bus drivers, you are assured of the following:

Awareness Of Traffic Rules And Regulations

They abide by all traffic rules by respecting the traffic lights, road signs, etc., and do not drive past the recommended speed limits. It’s because they care about your life as well as their own. In addition, when there are special needs onboard, our bus drivers go out of their way to provide any assistance necessary so that the passengers can travel comfortably.

Highly Cautious

They check the mechanical condition of the bus before starting to drive. They ensure that the lighting system, the engine, the oil, and the tires are all fit for the journey. This is intended for the safety of the people on board.

Excellent Time Managers

They are good time managers. We understand you have schedules that you can’t afford to miss, so we respect your time and do the needful. Again, it is because we know time is a significant factor for any traveller.

Good Communicators

Our bus drivers share with you any information about safety rules, delays, and any changes that can come up during the journey. They do this in the nicest way possible because they are great at communicating and getting along with other people. Since Arabic is the most widely spoken language in Bahrain, our bus drivers always look forward to learning it. They are curious to learn other Saudi native languages as well.

Good Listeners

Also, our Ugandan bus drivers can carry a lot of people at once, so they have to pay attention to the little things. It is because Bahrain is quite a new environment for them, so our drivers listen attentively and pay much attention to the passengers’ suggestions and complaints if any. They are good stress managers, too. Even when they are tired from driving long distances, Ugandan drivers don’t complain to their passengers for no reason. This is one of the many reasons our bus drivers are in high demand in Bahrain.

Hygienic And Smart

They are always smart and observe good personal hygiene. Cleanliness and style are paramount in Bahrain, so our bus drivers make sure to look good at work. But, again, this is because they are smart and clean people.

Highly Self-Driven

Ugandan bus drivers are also highly sought-after in Bahrain because they are self-driven. They execute their duties with minimal supervision. Once you hire them, you do not necessarily need extra time and effort to watch over them. They are experts anyway.

What Do One Need To Become A Bus Driver?

1. Bus drivers must have a valid driver’s license.
2. According to the law of Uganda, a Group B license permits one to drive motorcars and dual-purpose motor vehicles, Group CM—medium goods motor vehicles and heavy tractors—and Group CH—heavy goods vehicles.
3. You must also have experience and know how to drive well.
4. Bus drivers must not have a history of crashes on our roads (or any roads), and we shall conduct a background check to ensure they have a clean driving record.
5. Drivers must measure up to a physical, including hearing and vision requirements.
6. O-Level or A-Level certification or the equivalent is necessary.

Do We Train Our Drivers?

Oh, yes, we do.

Our bus drivers go through a rigorous 1 to 3 months of training. However, those with a valid driver’s license, a clean driving record, and all the other requirements to be on the road are subjected to a shorter training period.

Our drivers’ course is introductory but comprehensive, with drivers practising various manoeuvres with a bus.

Nine Exciting Facts About Bahrain That Ugandan AC Technicians Love

Bahrain is the third smallest country in Asia. It is thought that Arabian and Persian cultures lived together there. This Persian Gulf country has no land borders with any other countries. The country’s name means “two seas,” which makes sense given that Bahrain has one of the world’s longest coastlines. Here are some interesting facts about Bahrain.

1. Bahrain is an archipelago in the Persian Gulf with 33 islands.
2. Bahrain is the Middle East’s smallest country and Asia’s third-smallest country, with an area of only 295 square miles.
3. The natives of the country adore coffee. They think drinking coffee is one of their most important activities with friends. That is why there are so many coffee shops where people can enjoy a cup of coffee while chatting with their friends. Because it is flavoured with cardamom or saffron, the coffee in Bahrain tastes different from European coffee.
4. The education system in the country, which is said to be the oldest in the Arabian Peninsula, is divided into primary, intermediate, and secondary levels. Because education is free and mandatory for both boys and girls, most natives can read and write. So, the government can be happy that its efforts to educate have led to a high level of literacy among women.
5. Bahrain’s flag set the Guinness World Record for the most giant flag in 2004, measuring 169.5 meters long and 97.1 meters wide.
6. The Kingdom has one of the world’s largest mosques, the Al-Fateh Mosque, which covers an area of 6,500 square meters and, in 2006, became the official site of Bahrain’s National Library, which houses over 7000 books.
7. The existence of “The Tree of Life” would be surprising in a country known for having little to no rain. A 400-year-old tree stands alone in the desert with no known water source.
8. Bahrain is the world’s genuine pearl. At the turn of the century, the world discovered that the seas off Bahrain held the purest pearls.

9. In Bahrain, if you take a picture of a local person without their permission, you could go to jail because this is seen as a violation of their privacy.
