Best Bus Seat? It's subjective!

  • Front: Quieter, better view.
  • Middle/Back: More legroom, potentially more comfortable.
  • Window: Scenic views, natural light.
  • Aisle: Easy access.

Consider your priorities: noise level, legroom, view, or convenience.

Best Seat on a Bus?

Ugh, best bus seat? So tricky! For me, it’s always a gamble.

Front seats? Great view, yes, but the driver’s incessant braking on that #12 bus last Tuesday (July 18th, near the old bakery)? Nearly knocked my coffee over.

I prefer aisle seats. Easy bathroom runs, crucial. Remember that time in college? Three-hour trip, bladder bursting, window seat was a nightmare. Never again.

More legroom? Middle or back might be okay, though. Once, on a Greyhound (August ’22, cost $45), I snagged a back seat – surprisingly comfy! But that’s a longer journey.

Window seats are nice for scenery. But if you’re claustrophobic? Forget it. It all comes down to your vibe, really. You know?

What is the best position in the bus?

The front seat reigns supreme on any bus, undeniably. A panoramic view unfolds; it’s hard to argue against that.

Sure, it offers prime scenery. Legroom becomes a less pressing issue too. A perk; admittedly, I prefer the back.

  • Unobstructed View: Crucial for the visually inclined.
  • Less Crowded: Potentially more personal space.
  • Legroom: Stretching capabilities are enhanced.

However, the back has its charm; less bumpy! And my old school backpack fits perfectly. Is it a better position? Debatable, but fun to contemplate during transit.

Whats the best place to sit in a bus?

Front, totally. Driver’s right there, gotta be paying attention right? Safer. Back, people messing around, sleeping, who knows. Plus, if something happens, BAM, you’re in the crumple zone. I remember this one time, taking the Greyhound to Denver… Dude next to me, totally out of it. Spilled his coffee all over my new jeans! Never again. Front’s where it’s at.

  • Safety: Front is closest to the driver, better visibility. Less likely to be involved in a rear-end collision, which are common. My aunt, she’s a bus driver, told me all about it. Scary stuff.
  • Comfort: Sometimes the first row doesn’t recline, but, hey less people kicking your seat, ya know? Leg room’s not usually great though, especially if you’re tall like me (6’2″).
  • Motion sickness: Front minimizes sway, which is great for my sister, she gets carsick easy. Even on short trips.
  • View: Best view of the road. Especially scenic routes. Remember driving through Yosemite? Amazing. Front seat was the best.
  • Exiting: Quick exit. No waiting for people to shuffle out. Important if you gotta pee, lol.

Front seat, not always perfect. Sometimes it’s reserved for elderly or disabled. Over the engine, it can get kinda hot, but safer, def safer.

What is the best part of the bus to sit in?

Aisle seat reigns supreme. Easy in, easy out. Legroom. Freedom.

Window seat? Claustrophobic. View’s overrated. Trapped.

Consider the overlooked power seat: the back row. King of the road vibes. Privacy. Sometimes extra legroom. My personal bus-riding throne is back row, aisle side. Specifically, left side, for some reason.

  • Aisle: Unobstructed movement. Stand up whenever. Stretch. No awkward clambering. Control.
  • Window: Rest your head? Sure. But then you’re trapped. Stuck. Imprisoned. And that view? Mostly just blurry lights.
  • Middle: Awkward. Always. Sandwiched. No escape. Never choose middle. Seriously.

Back in 2017, I took a cross-country bus trip. Learned a lot about seat strategy. Aisle became my sanctuary. The world is your oyster. Except it’s a bus. But still. You get the point. Window seats are for romantics. Aisle seats are for realists. I’m definitely a realist.

What even is a good view from a bus, anyway? Blurry. Fast-moving. Disorienting. Give me legroom. Give me aisle. Give me freedom.

Wheres the safest place to sit on a bus?

Middle. Front-facing. Simple choice, no?

  • Middle offers distance. From predictable chaos.
  • Facing front? Sees the threat. Prep time counts.
  • Bumpers? Absorb some. Not everything, obviously.

Why the middle?

Further from initial impact zones. Front and rear. Sides too, mostly. Fewer direct pathways for force. Less chance for whiplash, probably.

Why front-facing?

Energy dispersion is key. Forward motion. Less sideways snap. Important, no?

Buses and accidents? My cousin once rear-ended one. Said the thing stopped “suddenly.” Sure, it did.

Which seat on the bus is best to avoid motion sickness?

Front. Center. Driver’s side.

  • Front seats = Less sway.
  • Central seats: Minimal lateral motion, trust me.
  • Avoid the rear.

Why?

Vision. Forward focus helps sync eyes, inner ear. Discrepancy = nausea. Happens.

  • Minimize Discrepancy: Fixate on the horizon. Open the windows. Fresh air matters, you know?
  • Avoid Reading: Seriously, put the book down.
  • Ginger. Peppermint. Old wives’ tales? Maybe. Worth a shot. I swear my grandma lived by it.

Motion sickness? Weak. Get over it, honestly.

What are the most comfortable seats on a bus?

Reclining seats. Period. Best bet.

  • Superior legroom.
  • Adjustable footrests: crucial for long hauls. My 2023 cross-country trip proved it.
  • Eases motion sickness. Fact.

Front row, aisle seats offer a unique advantage; escape route. Avoid the back. Always. Cramped. Hot. Miserable.

Upper deck seats? Forget it. Claustrophobic. Limited legroom.
