The Bus Driver
15 Years Experience
South, ..
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.
Uh no.
Share Answer: 
Not so much seen as heard of happening. Lots of inappropriate sexual stuff can happen with older students on a bus.
Share Answer: 
All drivers are supposed to pass strict guidelines and licensing requirements as set by federal and state law. We are required to pass a physical every year and comply with DOT standards. Do bad apples get through and do companies attempt to bypass these standards, yes. But rest assured that they nearly always get caught hopefully before lives are at stake.
Share Answer: 
Sometimes delays happen due to shortages of staff or an inability to function due to more restrictions for the safety of students and drivers and other staff. Just be patient. This covid-19 stuff is all new to us.

Do you think the nets should be lower for girls?
Someone's gotta do it. It's either that or the district offers remote learning options for the teenagers and not everyone succeeds that way.
Share Answer: 
Yes. Many districts do it, however them having children's names listed may be a security issue. I would bring that up to the superintendent.
Share Answer: 
No i haven't been in that situation but i have been in a situation where immediate weather has forced me to stop driving for a period for the safety of my bus kids. It's always safer to stop and shelter in place or seek out a secure building in those situations.
