The school buses are a bigger pain in the ass than transit buses to share the streets with.In my neighborhood in NJ, which has 25 MPH side streets and sidewalks, they stop at every god-damned house that has a kid, and even high school kids line up on the opposite side of the street as the bus stop, wait for the front gate to fold out like their mommy's won't let their 15- 17 year-olds cross the street. And the buses load out in the middle of the road like a damned trolley car as the drivers won't pull the front end into the curb like a real bus. That also increases the tripping hazard for kids getting on and off, and opens the hazard of passing on the right. I stand by the NIMBY-agenda. |
