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.
Do you think you should have a drivers license over the age of 66?
Come on, unless there is a serious issue and they can't pass the vision and physicals then it's fine.
It depends on the amount of miles a bus drives as to how much fuel it uses. I fuel up on average every 250 miles and get approximately 50 gallons of diesel.
B for bus driver.
1. Idiots on the road. 2. Idiots on the road running my stop sign. 3. Cleaning up puke.
1. Smiles 2. When kids sing along. 3. When they tell me they had a good day.
Mainly we get low pay for the crap we put up with, so the next time you see a bus driver. Offer a massage or alcohol or some sort of monetary compensation. They'll be your best friend for life.

You're welcome. No they did not lose their job but they did get a lot of crap from fellow drivers for a few weeks. We're human, we make mistakes. We just pray that no child gets hurt.
Report it to the bus driver to get it checked out. The driver should be doing a walk around and checking the bus for defects.
