(1)-(7) The Public Transport Authority does not record this information as the bus operations, including management of staff injuries, are undertaken by Transperth contracted service providers.
Nevertheless, the Mercedes Benz O405NH model bus has been in service since 1999 and the Bremshey model driver's seat has been in use since this time with no major reports of failure or driver related issues.
