I’m fucking sick of getting to work sweated through even after removing my jacket on the bus like, I just simply don’t understand, we’re all in winter clothes. Torture genuinely.

  1. I don’t understand what you’re asking.

    It is too hot on the bus? No that’s not normal temperature on the bus.

  2. Good old winter time where as soon as you get into a bus or shop you need to strip down

  4. I would contact the Stadwerke or who ever runs the city bus in your town and ask politly if it is possible not to overheat the buses.
    I mean almost 30° is just insane and sure as hell not normal.

  5. Send this to the Verkehrsbetriebe in charge with date, time and the bus line. They will talk to the driver

  6. Maybe you should complain to the bus operator directly. We can’t really help you with this.

  9. You are all in winter clothes, but the person who controls the temperature is not and they are sedentary for hours.

  10. I know this is Reddit and we don’t talk to other people in real life.
    But how about telling the driver, that it’s too hot in the bus?

  11. You should talk to the bus driver, and if he/she refuses to turn down the heat, go to Stadtwerke or the bus conpany and file a complaint with the bus line, time/date, and the photo of the temperature.
    These are summer temps.
    With the cold outside, the temperature change when getting on/off can be dangerous especially for older people and toddlers.

  12. My car sickness could not handle that heat inside a bus. That’s insane.

  13. That’s actually normal. busses are often overheated to compensate for the doors opening all the time. The best way to deal with it is only wearing a t-shirt under your winter coat and taking off the coat when you get too hot. 

  14. Ah. Yes. Busses in winter. Wait until you see the trains lol.

    Also: you’re so German 😂😂😂

  15. Contact the company providing the bus service. This is crazy!
    That’s why I hate traveling with public transport. In summer they cheap out on the AC and in winter they heat the thing up to 27-30C.

  16. I still miss those buses and everything there to the point I’m suicidal 24/7

  17. Maybe the bus driver enjoys his balls or tits sweaty?

  18. Call the Lokal transportation company, Ruhrbahn for example. Buses normally run an automated schedeule, out of reach for the driver, but they cant know that it works, if nobody tells them! Its always been at this one stop the heater goes full power, cuz the stop before the bus waits with the doors open so the bus overcompensates. I told them that every day for 2 weeks and finally it got fixed

  19. I didn’t bring a termometer with me, but it’s pretty much the same experience each time I ride a bus. Like, what’s the problem with keeping the temperature at 22

  21. Saunabus!

    Serously, a few people hetting naked will sort this out, i think…

  22. Yet in summer they will not cool it down. And let people bake in the public transport.

  23. Common problem in public vehicles and buildings in Germany in the winter. I’m not sure who is paying the heating bill, but they blast the heat like it’s free.

    It’s the counterpart to buses and shops setting the AC all the way down to 16°C in countries with hot summers.

  25. Omg yes! I often wear a flannel shirt and my winter coat to walk to the train. In the train and at work I just wear my flannel and that’s enough. Public transit is always way too hot

  27. You’re talking about winters? When we travel in SUMMERS within Bavarians hottest regions… it is SWELTERING HOT inside busses and trains to an extent that once I let my kid sit in his diaper as I could hear he was heaving despite me fanning him with a book & feeding him water. This year I’m perimenopausal .. so am not waiting for 2026 summers at all! It’s crazy how there is ZERO ventilation in DB trains or any buses here.. I mean I understand at one point of time it was never over 20 degrees in summers here but now it is not that case … since a decade so please make some arrangements so that your passengers are able to breathe or not suffocate so horribly inside public transportation!

  29. This can only be part of a secret governmental program to kill more elderly. /s

  31. The only reason I can think why a bus would need to be heated (though probably not to that extent) is the bus driver.

    Even if they wear a coat, they’ll get cold soon enough because they’re sitting for hours at a time, unlike the passengers. But

    1) that could be solved with heated seats (not sure if that’s standard in buses?

    2) even for their situation this seems excessive

  34. One thing people tend to forget is that the passengers also contribute to the heat. If I remember correctly an average adult produces around 300W of heat per hour. Now count the passengers around you, multiply that number by 300 and you have an idea why it’s getting so warm even though the heating might only be set to 22⁰C.

  35. There is some guy in the bus that has to be in it for 8 hours and also is forced to sit right at the door.

  36. I swear some bus drivers do not give a fuck in winter. I am rather small and have low iron, so normally the very first person to get cold in any setting. There is one bus where it is so horribly warm I will arrive sweat soaked and sometimes with a headache. I hate it so much, I don’t understand how or why.

  37. I don’t remember a single time when I felt comfortable in a bus. In winter it’s a sauna, in summer it’s also a sauna or an ice box.

  38. Yeah, there is nothing more I fear than taking the bus home after a night of drinking in the winter. The 30°, oxygen deprived air almost made me vomit multiple times.

  39. Damn you’re integrating well taking a fucking Thermometer, ro the public transportation and complaining about temperature is peak german.

    Ah shit this isn’t ask germany this is just germany…. you’re probably just an alman aren’t you?

  40. I was in kaufland yesterday with just two layers and I shit you not I was fucking sweating the entire time. Idk how ppl keep their jackets on.

  41. For me anything over 20 in a closed space is insanely torturous. I do not understand when usually people have 2 to 3 layers on them, why would they need this much high temperature. And these are the same transport associations which asks you to open the windows when it is too hot outside but won’t cool.
