Do people ever raise hell about when the bus stop is in their driveway? Does the district ask notify the home owners and ask them if its okay or do they just put kids out there. I heard a story of a very irate man chasing kids off his driveway.

Generally bus stops are decided either by the driver or by the district. If someone has a problem with the location of the stop they just need to contact the district.

Also the administrators and supervisors would see it and if it was too harsh or too nice they could change or toss it out. They could still also make another punishment. It’s more work for them and sometimes they may not even get around to it.

I'm not really sure to be honest. That would be a question for a mechanic.

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.

Do kids get you sick very often?

Asked by Redneck over 6 years ago

I generally have a decent immune system thanks to the germ tube i drive. But occasionally a sickness gets through my immunity and knocks me for a loop. Usually happens once a year or every other year.
