Meet David Hind - named the best bus driver in Cumbria, who hopes he can soon be known as the very best in the country.
The 45-year-old has been ferrying people around Carlisle and beyond in a Stagecoach bus for more than a decade, becoming a familiar face on the city's streets.
As well as operating the inner city routes, David also takes passengers over the border into Dumfries as well as over to Newcastle.
After being scored on his driving by a mystery traveller and passing a series of technical challenges, David, of Belle Vue south, has just been named as the best driver in Cumbria and North Lancashire by Stagecoach.
