The Battlefield 1942 bots are a lot dumber than the BF2 ones. They are very stubborn and do not like giving up their seats on the bus to old ladies. So you must be persistent. Keep pressing "E" to get in, eventually one will drop out. Do the same to switch to a position that a bot is using. If the bot isn't using that position then just press the number keys to switch.
