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.
Idk what you're talking about??
No there isn't a difference that I can see though different states may have different requirements.
I've had my share of bad buses. Probably one that I've had to call the cops to
Some drivers have old fashioned rules but it doesn't mean that they are wrong. Generally though to avoid harassment or problems I will sit boys with boys and girls with girls.

What's the rudest thing a driver ever said to you?
The thingamajigger is likely the digital camera system. The blinking light says its running. There may be a red button on it that the driver can push for automatic student ejection (just kidding) though really if they push that button it marks the tape and allows the driver to return to that moment in order to view what happened on video. Other flashy items on the dash may be the student lights or the left or right indicators.
Maybe stop acting out on the bus. Or don't ride if you don't like it. You always have other options including your own two feet and the wheels of a bicycle.
Not that I've seen but it would be awesome if we did have air horns. People are gonna run our stop signs regardless.
