Helen Antenucci who is 81 years old is now famous by the Guinness World Records as the oldest bus driver who is employed by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA).
Helen has been employed by the MBTA since 1995 who enjoys her work due to the fact that she has five daughters and she needed to get out of the home and have peace and quiet working as a bus driver.
Helen is a believer in the old saying "Age is just a number" since Helen intends to remain in her job since it is her joy to drive a passenger bus and transport passengers to their destinations safely.

@Deepizzaguy I drove one of those small sized school buses and a large sized van when I was doing deliveries! I would like to try and test drive a small sized RV, but we'll see.

That is true since I am sure that Helen will remain a bus driver as long as her health permits.

As long as the M.T.A. and Charlie (remember Charlie? He's the man who never returned from his trip on the M.T.A.'s subway train) have no qualms against her age, all the power to her.

As long as you enjoy what you are doing, no reason not to do it as long as you can.

A big clap for her !
Definitely a tribute to her Health, Agility and I believe that she is a role model for Good Health for all of us.
I think she should also be interviewed for her Health and Diet routine !

She is not even wearing glasses in that photo, so she must be doing all right health-wise, even so, I guess she is stringently tested each year in regards to her health. A friend of mine was forced to retire from tram driving because they claimed, that he had dementia, when he didn't. They just wanted an excuse to be rid of him, but he has appealed the dismissal so hopefully he will be reinstated soon too.
A good boss helps you keep working, otherwise it is a pain to work for an ogre, like my friend had to work for.
