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.

Why do drivers always pull their buses into Kum &Go?

Asked by Turtle fan dan about 5 years ago

Probably for the same reason you stop there?

Should we sue if we are forced to wear masks and get wrote up for daring to speak out against it? Health conditions we don’t have to wear them. We barely get paid anything and are already tested horriblely they want to fire drivers or make them want

Asked by Sherry about 5 years ago

I wouldn't sue but find other work

Why do bus drivers open the doors at railroads?

Asked by Sherry about 5 years ago

We have to listen for the trains as well as look for them. It's part of our safety procedure. Stop. Look. Listen. We cannot always count on the railroad crossing arms to work properly.

I also heard drivers have a five minute max time they can wait. Is that so and that seems like a long time. Why not just come back and circle or just leave their butt

Asked by Jon over 5 years ago

It depends on the district policy. I usually leave kids if they're late.

Do you think it’s OK to force children to wear masks? What about kids with special needs? What about kids who they don’t wanna wear it or their parents say they don’t want to wear it? Also most masks are in effective let’s make it harder to breathe

Asked by Miss Donna about 5 years ago

Yep i think its fine because if a parent doesn't like it they can homeschool.

What do you think of FFRF nut jobs who say public school bus drivers and even city transit can’t play sermons or religious music because of separation of church or state. Also, reports of school teachers and staff taking Bibles for this reason or andNot letting kids

Asked by Mike about 5 years ago

Well given its a public school we have to be sensitive about the potential difficulty for kids having different religions. We also live in a snowflake society.

Wassss good so have your ever prepared for a situation like a emergency where they evacuate schools on buses? I have heard of that happening in hurricanes, wild fires, and stuff

Asked by werqweert over 5 years ago

Yes. Have prepared and executed both types of evacuations.
