This is a true story allthough im not revealing any names.

In a small town near me there is a normal small school. And this school has Bus drivers. These bus drivers Drive in Rural areas. There is an espeacially mean bus driver that drives erraticly, fast, and does not control the bus well. On one morning a kid was flung from his seat across the isle into other kids severaly injuring him. They blamed the bus driver and a lawsuit followed. The bus driver was warned and was watched for a period of time to espeacially follow the rules better.So she has become, more mean. Then last weekend, our town took a band feild trip for the kids that came to practices over the summer. And she was the driver. Before hand she told everyone of the rules and the Ride begun. On the way there she stopped twice. Once because a kid was sitting on his foot, trying to look out a window! And another because this girls flip flop came off and she bent over to get this. Whenever she stopped she had the kids (a boy and a girl) come up front and sit by her, where they couldn't talk or do anything but look out the window. then as they got to the destination, she said nothing. Then as they reloaded the bus she stopped the kids and told them to sit by her again. Noticing this the parent chaperons were slightly disturbed but got over it. Then as unloading the bus back at the school the driver asked for the kids names. Then as the chaperones got off (they got off last) she informed them that she is giveing an inschool detention the next school day to them for not following her rules.The parents and chaperones were angry and stood up for there kids friends. And there was an arguement. This arguement was very ugly and finnaly ended in disagreement. The bus driver floored the bus almost wrecking a car and left the school. As this all happened the parents got together and are informing the principals about this behavior.

They found this OUTRAGOUS and I agree. Tell me what u think.

Without being there I could not really say.... Parents sometimes are not always the nicest people in the world either.... Instead of just reporting the bus driver and letting management decide it sounds like they might have taken the matter in their own hands and amplified the situation.......

With some parents, everyone else is at fault, never their child.

I think every-bus here has a camera installed, I sure hope so.

For a while the most dangerous place was a school-bus.

Why would you put a bunch of kids on a bus with no seat-belts and a driver seated facing out the window.

The driver's job is to safely transport the children. There should be adults in the front and back of every school bus. Don't have the person DRIVING trying to watch your kids.

THINK ABOUT IT!!! THe schools just do not want to hire anyone to ride those busses.

The sad reality is that safety measures are only put in place in this country after we have had enough tragedys to warrant it..... Deadly intersections for example.... Nothing is done until a bunch of people have already died there..... You wont get mandatory seat belts on a bus until a lot of kids get killed.... But ironically in most bus crashes the riders walk away unharmed..... It's hard to figure........

When I was in 7th grade our bus driver drove very fast,even when he reached the city limits..3 times in one month our bus hit a guy in a camaro..yep same guy same camaro he was coming home from work and we was just going to school..

Well us kids noticed a state patrol car following us to school one moring..And for the first time that year our bus driver was driving the right way...

Once when we hit the camaro many kids were hurt,worst was a boy in 9th grade. He broke his arm many had bumps and bruses few cuts and sprains..I was one who got hurt I had a big old bump on my forhead and spraind my wrist trying not to be thrown out my seat..

Back then we had no seat belts and the steel bars on back of the seats had no padding..Boy I will never forget that year..LOL
