  1. ONE of the reasons school buses are, relatively safer, is their sheer size and mass.  They are much bigger and heavier than most other vehicles on the road.  That means that very few other vehicles will provide much of an impact against the bus.

    Another, are the safety standards, required by fedral law, that are built into school buses.  One example would be the steel safety rail that encircles the body of the bus, about the waist level of the passengers.  In many models, the rail is painted black against the standard orange paint job.

    Another MAJOR reason for the bus' safety record is the special training and certification drivers must pass in order to qualify to drive one.  Among other things, drivers must pass a background screening, including fingerprinting and records sent to the FBI.  Drivers must obtain air brake certificarion and a passenger endorsement on thier licenses.  These step require additional, separate tests.

    Special laws, regarding other vehicles and how they relate to school buses also provide additional safety levels.

    There is still plenty of room for debate as to how safe these vehicle are, such as to whether seat belts should be required, but, all in all, our children seem to be much safer riding in a school bus than in most other vehicles.


  2. Parents can make schools safer.

  3. White people they dont Swear or talk trash

  4. Cops that actually DO THEIR JOBS. We had a few cops who stayed in our school all day, and all they did was flirt with the girls =/ What a waste of money.

    A class for teachers on how to look for early warning signs for students that could possibly become violent in the future (school shooters, etc.) I'm in college to become a teacher, and I would happily take a class on this.

  5. Private is safer.  Free from the stalinist hands of central government control.  And morons with knives.  That's why my boy goes to a private school.  So he doesn't get stabbed

  6. Train and arm the teachers with guns.

  7. nothing makes it 100 persent safe just fallow the rules and have more cops

  8. More white people makes it safer.
