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 China 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 China. 

Due to the low fuel requirements, driving in China is very economical. As a bus driver in China, you won’t have any trouble reaching any of the country’s numerous villages and towns, thanks to the state of the infrastructure there.

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 China?

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 Chinese 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 China, 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 China 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 China.

Hygienic And Smart

They are always smart and observe good personal hygiene. Cleanliness and style are paramount in China, 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 China 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 Does 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.

Ten Weird Interesting Facts about Why Ugandan Workers Love To Work In China

Out Of Nearly 3,000 Submissions, The Chinese Flag Won.

The Chinese flag may not appear complex, but it was a clear winner in the competition. The design for the Chinese flag was selected from a whopping 2992 submissions, which is an interesting fact in and of itself.

As a symbol of the Chinese Communist Revolution, red is used here. Meanwhile, the stars represent the solidarity of the Chinese nation.

As the four smaller stars orbit the larger central star, so should all of humanity. Powerful historical dynasties are also represented by the stars’ yellow hue.

The Chinese Invented Paper Currency.

In the seventh century, China was the first country to introduce paper currency. The event of historical significance took place during the Tang dynasty. Before paper money was introduced, Chinese currency consisted primarily of coins with a rectangular hole in the centre.

During the Yuan Dynasty in China, high inflation was also a problem. During that time period, a lot of paper money was printed and circulated.

China Is The Birthplace Of Football.

Considering China isn’t exactly known for its national football team, this may come as a bit of a surprise. Nonetheless, historical evidence suggests that football arrived in the UK over two millennia ago.

The earliest iteration of this game was a training tool for the military. The objective of the game was to kick a leather ball stuffed with feathers. The military camps and royal palaces both held competitions in high regard.

Of course, a lot of progress has been made in the game of football since then. Fans of the beautiful game can enjoy themselves by watching or participating in the FIFA World Cup.

However, Ping-Pong Did Not Originate In China.

In contrast, ping pong (also known as table tennis) is a popular sport in China. This may lead you to believe that the United States is responsible for the creation of the sport. That, however, is not the case.

The United Kingdom, not China, can claim the origin of this game. In 1901, ping pong was first played in China. Meanwhile, since 1953, this country has dominated this sport’s world championships.

It’s interesting to see how many Chinese immigrants have made their way onto national table tennis teams around the world.

Cooking, Not Eating, Was Done With Chopsticks.

Chopsticks are a typical eating implement at Chinese dining establishments. However, they weren’t initially consumed for food purposes. The majority of its useful life in Chinese households was spent as a kitchen utensil. Of course, proper chopsticks usage has developed over the centuries.

These days, it’s common for people all over Asia to eat with this. Before travelling to China or other Asian countries, it’s important to familiarize yourself with the proper chopstick techniques.

The Art Of Chinese Calligraphy Is Highly Esteemed.

In a lot of places, artists are looked down upon and not taken seriously. This view of Chinese calligraphy, however, is not shared within China. The influence of this art form can be seen all over the country, and it is held in high regard.

The art of Chinese calligraphy encompasses much more than just ink stones and seal carvings. Of course, the process of making such art can be difficult and time-consuming.

The 56 Minority Groups In China

The Chinese government recognizes 56 ethnic groups. The Han people make up the bulk of China’s population. This ethnic group accounts for 92% of China’s population.

Keep in mind that every single ethnic group has their own set of traditions that must be respected. Their language may be distinct from that of other Chinese communities. The minority groups have very distinct social norms and cultural practices.

Most Important Is The Family

The importance of family is a cornerstone of Chinese society. It’s what makes this country special. Parents would rather keep their children at home than see them move out, as is the norm in the West.

Sometimes a person’s success can be traced back to their ability to unite their loved ones at home. In China, this bond is considered extremely valuable and is rarely if ever forgotten.

In China, regular family gatherings are a time for bonding and socializing with extended family. That’s why it’s important to treat Chinese people’s families with dignity and respect.

In Chinese Culture, Dragons Are Not Symbols Of Danger.

Because of their appearance and their destructive potential, dragons are feared by many. The Chinese, however, do not share this opinion. In fact, dragons are seen as lucky in Chinese culture.

Interesting fact: in China, dragons are revered as symbols of power and good fortune. This is why parades of people dressed as dragons are common during Chinese New Year and other festivals celebrating the Year of the Dragon.

China Devours All Cuisines

The use of allegedly “weird” ingredients in Chinese cuisine is a point of contention. Some of the most well-known Chinese dishes include rats, snakes, dogs, and many other animals that are rarely eaten.

You shouldn’t let this put you off Chinese food because there is a wide range of “normal” dishes available. The country’s vast territories and regions contribute to its reputation as a culinary powerhouse.

One of the most well-known staples of the Chinese diet is rice. However, fortune cookies are not a traditional Chinese food. It is commonly believed that they originated in China. But these particular biscuits can be traced back to San Francisco.

The Chinese Have A Fear Of The Number Four

For various reasons, including religion, many Chinese people hold strong superstitious beliefs. The superstition that the number four brings bad luck is high on their list of core beliefs. This is why most people won’t call it.

In common usage, this number represents the Chinese word for “death.” This is why consumers rarely buy in multiples of four. The value in a red envelope will never be 4. Because of this superstition, they might also avoid going up to the fourth floor of a building.

There Is No Larger Man-Made Structure Than China’s Great Wall.

When travelling through China, the Great Wall is often a must-see attraction for tourists. The fact that the landmark was entirely constructed by humans is an intriguing fact in and of itself. It is a historic and architectural marvel.

Keep in mind that this building is just one of many tourist destinations in China. There are plenty of other interesting places to see across the country.

Every Five Days, A New Supertall Is Erected.

The fact that China adds a new skyscraper every five days is one of the country’s most fascinating statistics. That’s equivalent to 73 brand-new buildings appearing in the country each and every year. China’s government invests heavily in the construction of iconic landmarks to attract tourists and serve other needs as the country’s economy expands.

One of the best things about these skyscrapers is the new vantage point they provide over a given city. These structures might also house special indoor recreational opportunities.
