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.
Samantha, let me break it down for you. It's illegal to have tobacco products on school property. Therefore if the product got damaged, flushed, stomped on, otherwise destroyed, the person doing it would be well within their rights to do so. Buses are considered school property. Stop asking the question to get the answer you want to hear because its not going to happen point blank.
I've had a parent step up on my bus and shout in my face before. Generally once they say what they want to say it's over. Occasionally they will get so riled up that they will ignore bus driver requests to exit the bus and we have to call the police. The police can then arrest them for trespassing.
Not that i know of.
She cannot get fired for doing her job and checking the bus for sleeping kids. We can get aggravated and upset at kids that sleep but understand that you're human.

Are there social cliques (like "cool kids") in old folks homes?
Lol I find myself stopping at railroad crossings in my personal vehicle and when I'm out in the grocery store and I see a child acting out I will give them the bus driver stare.
Drivers names aren't bad to have on there. Parents can look up a route then call the shop and say hey i found my kids route with x driver and it helps the shop narrow it down so parents can get in contact with the driver.
Generally if someone chooses to watch explicit material they are discreet about it and use headphones. I can usually tell if something isn't right by the looks on kids faces and whether or not they draw a crowd. With the added availability of technology everywhere, explicit material is widely available to even the youngest person. If someone were to be reported for watching porn, I would have to write them up and confiscate the device.
