My question is I know some buses come as early as 5:30 or so. But are they ever earlier then that? Do you think there are any school buses that come closer to 5:00 or even four something?

Asked by Nixon almost 6 years ago

It depends on the district. Most districts have rules about when and how early to pick up students.

Question, have you ever been in a situation where a blizzard on a long trip has you stranded out of state and they shut the highway down. What did or would you do? Would you drive until they shut it down or pull over when would you feel unsafe to drivers

No i haven't been in that situation but i have been in a situation where immediate weather has forced me to stop driving for a period for the safety of my bus kids. It's always safer to stop and shelter in place or seek out a secure building in those situations.

Asked by Jon almost 6 years ago

No, thank goodness, though I have been involved in a few fender benders. Minor incidents, minimal damage.

Is there any districts or bus companies that don’t require and diploma OR equivalent? It seems like most do and I understand wanting people to have it but I figure the more requirements the less people they will have to pull from with shortages

Asked by Calhon over 5 years ago

Equivalent is experience. Most bus driving jobs and jobs today in general require a minimum of a highschool diploma. This should be industry standard across the board.

What are your bus rules?

Asked by Jermone almost 6 years ago

No killing each other, no bloodshed, respect each other, quiet at railroad crossings, no screaming unless you're bleeding, injured, or dying. Keep the noise level at a respectable level. Other than that I'm flexible.
