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.

Hi ???? have you always worked for the same district

Asked by YOUNG MAN over 6 years ago

Yes.

Has someone ever tried watching porn on your bus? If yes what happened? If no what would/will you do in that situation?

Asked by Rocco over 6 years ago

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.

what do you think about the bus driver who was fired a few years ago for praying?

Asked by Jejddjdjskd over 6 years ago

I think they went too far in firing a person over their religious beliefs.

Can I ask the bus driver not to have my child sit with the bully?

Asked by Jen almost 7 years ago

You can ask, but its not a guarantee if the child in question is not being a bully to begin with. I would start with asking if your child can be moved to a place thats within closer earshot of the driver so that they can keep a better eye on your child.

Yea but can it be considered vandalism if you pressed the issue? Or even theft? What about throwing a pack of cigarettes or chew away?

Asked by Samantha almost 7 years ago

Still illegal.

Do some districts allow kids from out of town to ride the bus? Say some districts kids parents work in other buildings but go to the same school I know most don’t allow that their responsible but is there some districts that do? Or for other reasons

Asked by 11 over 6 years ago

Generally teachers kids fall under a different category of kids and at least in my district they allow them to transport between buildings.

Yea I don’t get it I feel it can cause more of a danger. I understand in some areas because but in many areas the speed limit is 70 MPH and buses get rear ended going 55-40. I don’t see many buses going 55. Thanks for answering

Asked by Ruth over 6 years ago

It can cause more of a danger in some areas that's why many of us avoid highways with greater speed limits so as to watch out for the safety of our kids.
