Female, 37

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 is the dumbest question you have ever been asked on here?

Asked by James over 6 years ago

There are too many to list.

I could have swore there was another bus driver on here at one time. Was there or have you always been the only one?

Asked by JJ over 6 years ago

I have no clue. I know I'm one of the only school bus driver threads?? I'm not entirely sure though.

There is also a video of a bus driver blowing a whistle in a kids ear and yelling at him.

Asked by Jeff over 6 years ago

Thats unacceptable.

Do you think that two way radios can be a distraction for bus drivers? Why do some drivers think they are just something to chatter on. Like no Donna I don't care what your having for lunch I am in a wreck.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha <gasp> hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!! Omg thank you for making my night. Truthfully they have a good place but like you said, Susan is too busy planning her nail salon appointment and Joey is asking for a prayer request. On top of Dumbass Debbie who can't find an address that you've told her 8675309 times.....

Okay so I heard somewhere that a bus driver can not break up a fight. My bus driver a few years ago did and nothing happened to her. She still drove so she did not get fired, suspended, or put in jail

Asked by Karen over 6 years ago

It depends on the district policies and is generally left up to the personal call of the driver in charge. For example, if I have two middle school or high school kids fighting, I will call the cops. But if the kids are elementary, scrawny and tiny, I'll intervene before they beat the snot out of each other.

what do you think of this. Okay long story short the driver called for the police becuase of back talking. Supervisor shows up instead. Bus driver refuses to let him on while there is now someone bradding him. 20 min late because SROs had to come.

Asked by This was years ago but.. over 6 years ago

Uh. What? If his supervisor showed up then he should have let the supervisor on the bus.

Then think if The regular driver had a problem with it then why would rude lady take it away instead of just asking to silence it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
