A bus driving contest to test bus driver’s skills took place in Chongqing yesterday. About 30 bus drivers participated in the competition, which were selected from 14,000 drivers of bus groups with work experience above three years.

In order to increase the difficulty of the contest, drivers were asked to navigate through different roads accompanied by a bowl of water beside them. Their scores were determined after assessing the remaining amount of water in the bowls.

Zhang Dong, a driver from Chongqing Tram Company, was declared the champion in the finals, after finishing with 140 ml of water.
