Although I'm pretty sure part of the glass can slide out of the way if the driver wants more interaction with the passengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, you could remove the transparent top section but that makes it harder for you to hear the people behind you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't confirm for your barriers but the few in Victoria BC have sliding glass in case the operator wants to converse with the passenger. There is alot of glare however.

No. They are going to have laser beams instead. If the driver senses an imminent threat, he or she can push a large red button on the side console which will trigger laser beams concealed inside the onboard security cameras, vapourizing the threat. 1 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the most likely place to find them, yes. They can also be found in Langley, occasionally in Richmond (301) and New Westminster (340). One might even make its way to Ladner (640). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
