a mamin- why are buses with two doors a must have? my son comes home on the bus every day, and his bus has one door. most buses have a “bus counselor” or matron (sorry, cant think of a better word) who gets off before the children and makes sure they cross safely. if your childs bus doesnt, THIS is what you should be spending money on, not totally new buses. by the way, doors on both sides is not what prevents people from going around a stopped bus.
i also want to say that i agree with 600 kilo all the way. and whoever it was who suggested cutting the national safety budget, please think for a minute about just how crazy that actually sounds. we have countries around the world who would love to take us out in a milisecond, but we shoould cut our defense budget…..
