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.

Hahaha i saw that yesterday

Do you think City Buses will stop running until this whole Corona Virus thing blows over?

Asked by SCARED about 6 years ago

That is a possibility if we reach similar crisis levels as seen in wuhan and in Italy. Just stay calm, practice social distancing, become a housecat and demand a sunny spot at the window.

Hey do you think I will get written up if I get in the tool box?

Asked by Dawg coollllllll kid over 6 years ago

Probably. Just don't do it because you can lose your riding privilege. Don't say i didn't warn you.

Why do people think these forms are chat rooms?

Asked by Donaldsoneeson about 6 years ago

I don't know?

Hi, do you think more districts should have programs that track buses and alert parents also alerts that say for delays, early arrivals, and other changes to the bus schedule? Do you think while convenient they raise privacy concerns or not?

Asked by 02983457 about 6 years ago

I would like to see something like this but it could get abused by parents. I think it could be regulated by each district and company. That way the company can relay info to parents without giving up location info to parents for safety of children.

What is all in the tool box(s

Asked by CUZ almost 6 years ago

Good question! There is usually one box for first aid. That has your typical bandaids and other first aidey type items. Then there is the body fluid clean up kit which we break out in the event a child vomits on the bus or blood is shed. That has gloves and specific instructions on how to dispose of body fluids.

Finally the long thin red box usually bolted to the floor is reflective triangles that we can unfold and pop up when the bus is broken down and we need to give motorists warning of what's on the road.

Now that I remember I had a driver who had this rule too. Is this messed up or do you agree?

Asked by Confused over 6 years ago

Again every driver has different standards.
