Female, 37

I have been a bus driver since late 2006. I know the inside story, the scoop, the down low dirt of what it takes to be a bus driver, how to handle kids and adults, and how to survive on the "streets" so to speak. I used to have a blog, feel free to browse it or ask me a question here.

What do you do if you hit a deer or some other animal?

Asked by Jane almost 7 years ago

Report it to the boss and the boss goes and gets the meat if its a deer. If its a smaller animal like a squirrel we don't generally report it. If its a dog or a cat we let the boss know that way if an angry parent calls he can say keep your animal inside next time.

Heres a question for you, why are most type D buses shorter then the Type Cs? Noticed the same thing with Bs

Asked by Marla about 7 years ago

I'm not entirely sure but it has to do with the make and model of the bus. Some school buses are 72 passenger and others are 90 passenger and still others are even less. So it just depends on the need of a company.

What is better Bluebird, IC, Thomas, Lion, or some other manufacturer?

Asked by June almost 7 years ago

I slowed down on answering them. Time constraints on my part.

Why do you think your question volume has gone up? You used to get a question maybe once a week sometimes now it is like sometimes multiple times a day.

Asked by Roberta almost 7 years ago
