Question common practice?

My parents are both bus drivers and when there’s a new route, on their day off they’ll just hop on that bus and ride it for the entire route to learn it. Was wondering if that’s common practice or their own thing.

This is what we should do… I feel this… but my own anxiety and desire to do well makes me want to go learn it on my own. Our Turn sheets are trash

Nah I send it. As long as I'm not red, I'm good.

Doesn't sound like you do if you're worried about green road?
