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 is your biggest pet peeves kids or teens do?

Asked by Angela over 5 years ago

Mostly when they outright disrespect the adult in charge. It bugs me because they feel they don't need to face consequences for their behavior and actions. It further irritates me when their parents defend the ugly behavior too.

Why did my white woman bus driver wright up a black kid for racism after he said “nigga” to his homie. He was not being racist and the bus driver said “it does not matter and just a shortened version it’s still racist”.

Asked by Jacob Amith over 5 years ago

Gotta side with the driver on this one dawg. Being racist wasn't the issue the issue was inappropriate language. So sit down, shut it, and quit being foul mouthed with your homies

Is it normal for a bus driver to have three routes? The Early route which is HS, then your MIDDLE SCHOOL AND JR HIGH and then High School? What are the time frames of this on a medium distance route?

Asked by Ramy over 5 years ago

Yes. With the shortage of drivers many drivers are pulling double and triple loads. Often school times are staggered start to accommodate. It depends on the district the timing of the buses. Generally buses run from 5:30 am till 10 am it just depends on the district. Same for afternoon runs. Usually the kids who went in early will get released early.
