About BDoY (Bus Driver of the Year) History | The BDoY Council | Middle Walk Bus Services Vice-Presidents Message | Low Cost Bus Shop Window Vehicle Donor's Roll of Honour   Low Cost Bus Shop Window   Bus Driver of the Year provides a very high profile shop window for the vehicles used by the competitors, who, it must be remembered, are the country's best drivers and who are motivated on the day to drive with exemplary care. Also, and importantly, vehicles are driven at a generally slow pace and nothing is 'against the clock'   On BDoY day, manufacturers and dealers can therefore have their vehicles paraded up and down the Blackpool Seafront and the local road network non-stop for over four hours in front of influential tendering authority principals, bus industry Directors and senior managers, and other public transport opinion-formers.   The cost is only that of getting the vehicle - which must be taxed and insured of course - to Blackpool with enough fuel in it! Put another way, it could be about the same cost as ten minutes exposure at the NEC   Stewardship of buses loaned to BDoY is managed personally by the Association's Chairman, Bryan Constable. Also, a security guard looks after the donated vehicles full-time throughout the evening and night. Make contact with Bryan if you wish to get one or more of your vehicles in front of professional and influential spectators.     ©2003-2008 UK Bus Driver of the Year Association Ltd.
