Watch my driving? HA!!! I have to fight my way to work around all those high school kids driving brand new cars to Penn High School. They think it is a race and a contest to cut eachother off. I think they should watch THEIR driving. Capital is like one long drag strip with Ricky Rookie at the wheel.

and just a note to all you bus drivers,who drive 40 mph on hiways and interstates but 60 mph on neighborhood roads;
If you gotta let kids off and there's 3 cars behind you,don't slam on the brakes and whip that sign out.
Try some courtesy and let the few cars pass, before you make us dive for the emergency brake.
Most importantly,take a drug test from time to time........

Our schools don't start until 8/16. It looks like I'll be driving many of your kids to school this year, that is if you live around here. I'm gonna try my hand at driving a bus. I'm gonna go and find out what route I'll have today. I'll be scouting those garage & yard sales, probably making the rounds to the local stores. Watch out scalpers!

If you drive for my district, you WILL be taking a drug test from time to time. All drivers get a DOT physical & drug test. Law also requires random drug/alcohol testing throughout the year.RobDog said:
If a particular school district doesn't have DOT certification, law requires that uncertified buses stay under 50 mph, even on highways & interstates. Law in Texas doesn't require that certification.
At least we are getting a bunch of brand new, air conditioned, diesel engine buses this year.

Now I gotta build me up a diecast schoolbus collection. The nicest diecast one I've seen so far is by Road Champs. It had remarkable detail. It blows away the HWs version. The ones I have so far are the HWs, Partridge Family and Springfield Elementary.
Better yet, I need a slotcar version!
