So is that 347? Hey, 47 here.
00:02
So your leader is still stuck on the hill.
00:06
They do not have any passengers left.
00:08
You don't have to stop there.
00:10
Don't stop there because you'll probably get stuck too.
00:13
But the street supervisor and the shop are on scene there and they said that there is room for you to get around.
00:19
Obviously use extreme caution in doing that, but they know you're on the way or if you know what I mean, they know you're close.
00:25
So thank you.
00:27
Thanks for the heads up. Thank you. 40.
00:30
Hey, 5234? 47, go ahead.
00:33
You're on 76th and Knox, and I was pulling out from the bus stop, and the bus can make the little uphill by just sliding down backwards.
00:46
All right. It sounds like your hazards are on.
00:50
I will go ahead and get the shop headed your way.
00:53
Keep trying when it's safe to do so.
00:54
Keep trying to slowly enter.
00:56
Up that hill,
00:57
Keeping your traction obviously very steady.
01:01
But I will, I'll get the shop on the way to you.
01:04
Just let me know if you get out okay.
01:05
There's one other issue.
01:07
When it slammed down, my tail is going inside the curb so I cannot keep going backward because it's going to hit the bus stop and I'm in the middle of the road.
01:20
And I think there's another bus coming because I passed him.
01:25
Okay, all right.
01:26
I understand. Just stay put then, and I'll have the shop to you as soon as I can.
01:30
I'll be there. Thank you.
