Unfortunately they are bus drivers. A group of adrenaline-fuelled private bus drivers have turned a bus tunnel in
Since those times it has grown enormously and the bus interchange (we walked when I was a boy) is beneath a major retail centre. So side by side, they race down the bus tunnel underneath this shopping centre.
The game is to see who can record the highest speed down the 200m tunnel before screeching to a halt outside the busy bus stops, crammed with waiting passengers. I don’t think George W catches the local bus so there isn’t really much drama, but I’m not sure how they wind the lumbering beasts up that much.

Given enough distance, even a diesel engine can get a vehicle going at a pretty good clip--momentum is a marvelous thing. The problem, of course, is that somebody eventually going to crash in a way that takes out more than just a retaining wall.
Thought you might like that one :) I think the big problem is those bloody pedestrians on cell phones. How are they going to dodge a speeding snail?
