Initial Response Training on Buses in Operation, Assuming a Major Earthquake (Hankyu Bus)

When will it happen?

Around 10:03 on Wednesday, November 5, 2025
Training time: About 1 minute

Where will it happen?

Inside Hankyu buses in operation (while driving, deadheading, stopped at bus stops, etc.)

What will they do?

• Stop the bus in a safe location (while driving, deadheading, or stopped at a bus stop)🚌
• Explain the situation inside the bus and check whether anyone is injured📢

Finally

A drill where the bus quickly stops during operation and the staff explains what’s happening sounds like it could help passengers feel safer in an emergency🤗 Because the training may cause delays of a few minutes, anyone riding around this time may want to allow just a little extra time〜⏱️
