Why is the double-decker "sleeper bus" suddenly "banned"? The reason is scary.

Speaking of the most familiar means of transportation, besides high-speed rail and train, there is another means of transportation that we are most familiar with, and that is passenger bus! Passenger shuttle bus can help us cover towns and villages that are not covered by high-speed rail and trains, so many people have the experience of taking passenger shuttle bus.

In some long-distance sections, passenger buses often need to sit for more than ten hours, which is completely insecure from the passengers' feelings! In order to improve the comfort of the bus, a double-decker sleeper bus appeared. However, why was this double-decker sleeper bus suddenly banned? The reason is really scary.

First, the sleeper bus is prone to danger during driving. Because the height of the double-decker sleeper bus is higher than that of the ordinary bus, and almost all the weight will be concentrated on the high floor, the bus is equivalent to the tumbler structure. Once the vehicle brakes or makes an emergency turn, the risk factor will rise rapidly. It is for the sake of passenger safety that double-decker sleeper buses are strictly prohibited.

The second reason is that the management of the early double-decker buses was lax, and the accumulation of luggage easily caused fires. You know, fire is almost fatal to passenger transport! In the early double-decker sleeper buses, the luggage placement was not particularly standardized, so there were many flammable and explosive articles piled up in the corridor. In this way, the space inside the car is relatively closed, the temperature is high, and the probability of fire will become particularly high. After the fire, crowded passages will also prevent people from escaping.

It is precisely because of these two reasons that sleeper buses have been strictly prohibited and replaced by buses that are wider than ordinary buses and can make people recline! Such a bus can not only ensure safety, but also greatly improve the ride comfort. Obviously, sleeper buses have no place to live and are doomed to be eliminated.
