Is this real?

I would love to ride a bus that looks like a tram.

I believe they have these in Brisbane, Australia. This image is also from Australia somewhere given the street signs and what looks like the Australian Aboriginal flag (and possibly the normal Australian flag) in the background.

SMH can tell you've never played geoguesser before, you didn't mention the side of the road!

It's a classic double articulated bus in Brisbane. We have them here in Europe and nobody do fancy things with them

Australia seems like a magical place.

This is in Perth, the bus in the background of the image is a TransPerth bus 🙂

Edit: I found this video for anyone interested; https://youtube.com/watch?v=28IE-Rt6GOQ

This looks a lot more tram than the Brisbane ones to me. Specifically because it's actually double-ended so has the benefit that provides of not needing to turn the bloody thing around.

China too, and UAE I think

malmö is full of them, but they're not quite insufferable (just stubborn) so they just call them "the malmö express".
