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.

Is it legal to have bus schedules on a public forum? My district used to and I know it’s convenient but you can see every bus stop, the estimated time of arrival, and how many get on/off/transfer. On SPED routes it says everyone who rides. Full names

Asked by DJ over 5 years ago

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.

Yes true and I assume the phone numbers are work numbers. I just don’t like that kids names and every stop and what time their on and off I just there for anyone to see. Thanks again!

Asked by Dj over 5 years ago

You're welcome.

Would you be mad if some other bus driver got approved on here and people where asking him/her questions instead of you?

Asked by You don’t know why they did that over 5 years ago

Nope, the more the merrier. I only have my opinion so another driver may add their own opinion to questions.

Do you think Chris Farley is delivering lunches to kids? Uh oh...

Asked by YOU KNOW about 5 years ago

Uh no.

Have you ever had a fight on your bus and what happened?

Asked by Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek over 5 years ago

Yes. If the kids fighting draws blood in any way shape or form, i immediately call the police. If i am close enough to a school i have the administrators called out. If not i tell parents and write up kids.

Is it sketchy if drivers are in the radio saying where the cops are

Asked by Crown super coach over 5 years ago

Eh, not really. Most anyone who listens to a cb radio feed can figure out where the cops are stationed.

How cool is it to drive in the dark morning when it’s Christmas time and all the Christmas decorations are lit up and everything is all lit up down the street.

Asked by Yoooodooooodole over 5 years ago

Honestly, it's my favorite time of year because i never know which houses will decorate and go all out. I love it.
