Bus drivers in Israel

They are a real phenomenon. I had some experiences on buses that I've never encountered anywhere else. Bus drivers are very friendly to each other and they must talk, exchange views about local affairs and politics. So they stop the bus, open the doors and begin to shout to each other.

There are some nice bus drivers who they tell passengers 'come inside the living room' when they go on the bus. Some have few plants and flags next to them. One driver even had all the walls of the bus covered with his grandchildren's drawings. You have to see it to believe it.
