The folks who build and operate school buses have better lobbyists, and when a school bus crashes it doesn't explode into a million pieces, so it doesn't attract the media frenzy that an airliner crash does.

Apparently children's lives aren't as important.

I agree; school bus seats should have three-point harnesses just like passenger cars and trucks do, but they don't.

Because on a school bus you would only hit an object at maybe 50 mph. On an airplane you would hit the ground around 300 mph and maybe the seat belt would save your life. LOL. Because we have stupid people in our government.

What a good question i think that the main reson would be that airplanes go around very fast but the main reson is on a school bus people get on and off a lot and it would be very compicated

Airplanes have seat belts because of air turbulence and the possiblity of dropping hundreds of feet in seconds. If you weren't belted in you would fly all over the cabin.

If the school bus crashes and the driver is hurt the children may not be able to get themselves free from the restraint as they tend to panic a little easier then adults.

School buses don't have turbulance for one. Also they are so heavy in weight that seatbelts are not required by law.
