Comment

According to Section 35g of the Road Traffic Licensing Regulations (StVZO), double-decker buses must carry at least two operational fire extinguishers with a filling mass of 6 kg each. A fire extinguisher should be placed in the immediate vicinity of the driver's seat to provide the driver with quick access in an emergency. The second fire extinguisher must be located on the upper passenger level so that rapid action can be taken there in the event of a fire. This arrangement ensures that both the driver and passengers on both levels of the bus can act quickly in the event of a fire to increase the safety of all occupants.
