My school bus driver is flat out evil. She has said she was going to get a scitation on 3 occasions (never going through with it yet but still) and this last time, she moved me and my friends up to the front of the bus, we sat, chated, laughed, and she said that she was going to give us ALL scitations! WTF? Does anyone know how to get her canned or at least get another driver for our route?

The first time, everyone in the back was laughing, she came back, told us out, turned around, I sneazed, and she turned around and said she was gonna give me a citation. Next, she claimed I moved seats, which I did not, and she said she was gonna give me one. This time she wont even tell me why untill I get a citation. Other people are messing around and me and my friends get in trouble. THERE IS YOUR FULL STORY.

I am a school bus driver and I can tell you firsthand that it is a very hard job. We have to concentrate on our driving so you and your friends can get to school safely. We also need to make sure that the bus is a safe environment inside for all the students.

I am sure she isn't evil. She is just trying to do her job. Sometimes we crack down on the wrong person because we cannot see who is misbehaving. It is easy for students to distract the driver by being loud and obnoxious.We need to maintain control on the bus also. Imagine driving and watching the road, listening to the cb and trying to navigate. All the while, making sure you are on time,battling traffic, bad weather and making sure not to make any people into "speed bumps", by running them over, lol.

I am not totally taking her side. She may be a cranky person and be taking it out on you guys. I don't know the situation. Just keep in mind that the job that we do is very important and if you are respectful it will probably change her view of you. If you hate her that much I suggest your parents drive you to school because she is doing a service for you and them.

EDIT: BTW I am the coolest bus driver....I don't know what grade you are in but my high school students were the best....so I had 2 pizza parties on the bus for them. Just pizza and soda that I bought. We had a blast and I did it because they were respectful, helpful and great kids!

Your bus driver is going to get you into trouble even though all you did was behave really well?

Hmmm, sorry ~ sounds like there might be more to this story than you're letting on.

However, if you feel you have a genuine case for complaint, you and your friends could write a formal letter, setting out the dates and times of what the bus driver did that you felt was wrong, unfair or unprofessional.

Conclude by saying what you want done ~ e.g., new driver for that route. Sign it with your name/s and address/es.

Ask them to reply in writing stating what they plan to do about your complaint. Make sure to keep a copy of the letter.

Post or hand deliver it to your school principal or the appropriate authority (school board?).

Before doing so, think about whether your complaint is justified. It is not enough to just dislike someone to make an official complaint about them which may affect their job.

Cheers :-)

I stay in NYC and that i'm getting evil bus drivers all the time. you comprehend what i've got desperate to do because of the fact that's now a legal to attack a bus driving force? i'm carrying my digicam and recording each shady difficulty they do. are you able to suspect that on my way residing house from artwork, the bus driving force decides to quit the bus on the interior sight coffee shop and get a cup of coffee whilst we've been on the bus? I recorded that and every time they curse out consumers i visit record it. Then, i visit place up it on Youtube and pay for it to be on the front website and that i'll make confident I record the bus # in case their bosses go with to take disciplinary action. i'm ill and bored with them questioning that they could do despite and not get caught or be held responsible.

How about behaving when you're on the bus? And, it's CITATIONS not scitations.

She's driving a school bus full of kids. Your antics brought you and your friends up front. She has to keep an eye on you guys and drive safely at the same time. You're lucky she hasn't put you off the bus.

My advice, talk quietly amongst yourselves and show the bus driver some respect. She has your safety in mind and you aren't making it very easy for her.
