Maybe in the future Go North East (and other bus operators) can look towards allowing enthusiasts - and the general public - to do just this.
I spent most of my working life as a vehicle tester (managing drivers and routes and analysing the 'failures').
All of these vehicles (trucks and buses mainly, but also cars and vans) were 'experimental' - ie before production - so 'failures' had to be studied carefully - usually when there was a breakdown it was as a result of something that had never happened before, and the evidence had to be preserved.
