The interviewer wants assurance that you are confident in your knowledge of the city and surrounding areas. As a bus driver, you must have strong geographical knowledge and excellent recall skills. Talk about the time that you have spent becoming familiar with the routes you will need to know in this role. The employer may also have geographic testing available, so it's great to offer your participation in any tests they may want to conduct.
