The detailed airbrush artwork featured on the back of this bus is typical of most of the "diablos rojos", the main form of public transportation in Panama. Obviously the driver of this bus really enjoys his music and probably has loud reage music blasting from the several sub woofers mounted under the seats for the listening pleasure of his passengers. It sure makes a long, hot bus ride more enjoyable when you have music to groove to. Notice the padlock in the upper left corner and the hole where the emergency door handle used to be... since many of the buses are frequently very crowded, the bus driver avoids loosing revenue from people sneaking out the back door without paying since he can't see all the way back through the throngs of standing passengers.
