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.
Yes. Report it to the proper authorities.
State will refer you back down to local as its simply political. How they choose to spend their money is up to them.
Yes it is, bus drivers have schedules they need to keep. The driver may be waiting to start his or her next route. As long as the bus is off the main part of any road and not impeding traffic a bus driver can stop and "take a break" as you put it.
There are too many to list.
Hollywood Executive Assistant
Are Hollywood execs as nightmarish as depicted on TV?
Fashion Model
How prevalent are eating disorders in modeling?
Flight Attendant
What kinds of passengers annoy you the most?
Having to see a kid go through hard times and not being able to do much about it.
I believe the federal law is 14 to 16 hours on the clock 8 hours mandatory off the clock. This is generally for truckers and other long haul drivers. School bus drivers don't usually have to adhere to that federal law.
Consider this. A trip might be 10 hours long but only involves 4 hours worth of drive time (drive there and back) the remaining 6 hours are the activity time for the group you took to the destination.
We use them for visibility reasons. I have no issue with them.
