You are driving a double-decker bus. Where should a fire extinguisher be located?

In Germany, regulations stipulate that a fire extinguisher must be easily accessible in case of an emergency. Placing one in the immediate vicinity of the driver’s seat ensures that the driver can reach it quickly if a fire occurs. Having an extinguisher on the upper deck is also crucial for safety, as this is where many passengers are located. A fire can escalate rapidly, and having a readily available extinguisher on both levels increases the chances of effectively managing a fire before it spreads. The luggage compartment is not an appropriate location for an extinguisher, as it is typically less accessible during an emergency. Having the extinguisher in the designated areas ensures compliance with safety regulations and enhances the overall safety of the vehicle.
