I still don't understand why school buses don't have seat belts OR wearing them are not mandatory if equipped..

@Evilskyworshippers Місяць тому

CONservative pro-death area. Cons love deregulation cuz they believe megacorps will always do the right thing which is IRONIC AF.

This debate has been ongoing for a while. You can disagree with it but it’s foolish to state you DONT KNOW WHY. Who’s to blame when dozens of kids burn to death in a bus fire in this exact scenario, and they can’t figure out or are unable to escape the seatbelts. That’s the whole argument, it turns into a death trap.

@@FakeNews953 perhaps but that debate has already been decidely in favor of seatbelts which is why all buses made 2017 and on have seatbelts. This was an older model , 2011 i believe, and not all schools have been able to buy newer buses to replace every single bus in their lineup needed.

@championx1 Місяць тому

@@FakeNews953 it makes sense to me that the number of actual vehicular fires is extremely minimal compared to the saftey seatbelts provide from keeping people from being thrown around or crushed in rollovers and hard impacts. fires are rare, but every accident results in IMPACT and possible roll.

The concrete truck driver needs to be held accountable. Period.

@user-CharityFFForever Місяць тому

I don't get why school busses with children ride everyday to school and back don't have to have seat belts but it's a law that adult drivers and passengers have to have seat belts while riding and driving .

@SUGAR_XYLER Місяць тому

Exactly. That's says a lot about the government

Whoever that truck driver is needs to be arrested and sent to prison for life.

It was discovered that the concrete truck driver had smoked marijuana the previous night, didn't get much sleep, and was high on cocaine during the impact just FYI

Dash cam video by The bus shows that the semi truck did not hit them head-on it drove past them the bus driver swerving losing control and rolling the bus being an inexperienced driver

@nino88881 Місяць тому

It doesnt matter. The truck went to the other lane and causes the accident. You dont have to be a racer to be a bus driver. They are just normal driver who can get panicked.

@jaykamal1978 Місяць тому

Yes the truck crossed the yellow lines, but there was soooooo much space on the other side for the bus driver to avoid a head on. I guess bus driver is a perfect example of a steering wheel holder.

@newdohl 27 днів тому

I take it you were the other driver

@jaykamal1978 27 днів тому

@@newdohl U can take it wherever u want, however that don't change the fact that when u see something heading straight towards u and there's more than enough room to move over, u move over and try to avoid it. In this case the bus driver was like a programmed robot and drove right into that cement truck.
