• Suspension: The bus exhibits significant body roll (tilting) during cornering. The high center of gravity necessitates slower cornering speeds compared to low-floor buses.
• Braking: Air brakes are highly responsive. The simulation accurately depicts the "nod" of the bus during hard braking.
• Acceleration: The throttle response is progressive. The simulation requires the player to be gentle with the accelerator to prevent passenger discomfort (often monitored by the in-game passenger satisfaction trigger).
