Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Unreferenced Bus doors are of various types of buses with doors including conventional doors, folding doors, sliding plug doors, coach doors and inward gliding doors.
Conventional door
A conventional door, also known as a regular door or vehicle door is a type of door that is hinged at the front-facing edge of the door, and so allows the door to swing outward from the hull of the bus. These doors are relatively safe, in that if they are opened during forward motion of the vehicle, the wind resistance will work against the opening door, and will effectively force its closure.
