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.

What happens if you break down on a one lane road with no shoulder?

Asked by Chicken Little over 6 years ago

You call a tow truck and the mechanics. Then put out the hazard triangles to show motorists of the hazard of your vehicle in the road.

So that being said a guy would have to be seated next to a girl and vice versa. She has other weird rules. Asking for someone else.

If there is a scum bag teen on your route do you go out of your way to make his rides miserable? Either continuously wright him/her up or they just stop riding because they don’t want to have to deal with you? Would you embarrass them?

Asked by Sarah over 6 years ago

No. No. No. I generally try to get through to all my bus riders and make them feel welcome on my bus regardless of past behavior or issues.

Why are some bus drivers show up as early as possible so we can sit in the bus lot for thirty minutes and do nothing. Others show up at the last possible minute? What’s up with that? My bus comes at 6:45 this year a few years ago it was 7:15.

Asked by Dann over 6 years ago

Are other kids getting on your bus while you wait at.the bus lot? There may have been some changes to where other drivers are forced to hold other kids while the now empty drivers go out and pick up more kids. Personally I time my route so that I don't have to wait in line.

What do you do if you hit a deer or some other animal?

Asked by Jane over 6 years ago

Report it to the boss and the boss goes and gets the meat if its a deer. If its a smaller animal like a squirrel we don't generally report it. If its a dog or a cat we let the boss know that way if an angry parent calls he can say keep your animal inside next time.
