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.

Do I have to have a air brake endorsement to drive a bus? What if I don't drive a bus with air brakes?

Asked by ZNnasnnssnnsn almost 7 years ago
