  • one or more sensors configured for sensing one or more service operating conditions experienced by at least one vehicle system of the passenger bus, and for providing corresponding output signals;

    at least one data processor configured for applying an amplitude counting algorithm to count a number of times said output signals exceed at least one specified amplitude, and to generate data representing said count; and

    memory usable by the at least one data processor for storing the data representing said count; and

    the method performed by the same or another data processor, and comprising;

    accessing, in the same or another memory, the data representing the count of the number of times the output signals exceed at least one specified amplitude, andusing the accessed data, monitoring operation of the passenger busby associating the accessed data with a road traveled by the passenger bus, scheduling maintenance for the road based on the associated data.
