"Can you sit on top?"
Yes! The top deck is the best part. You get amazing views of the city from up high. Many tourists love sitting on top to see all the sights!
"Do they tip over?"
No! Double deckers are designed with a low center of gravity and wide base to stay stable. They're tested to make sure they won't tip, even on turns.
"How do you get upstairs?"
There's a staircase inside the bus! You climb up the stairs to reach the top deck. Some buses have spiral staircases, which makes it extra fun!
