It's crazy school buses don't have seat belts

😥

There is no way a school bus driver can reasonably secure up 72 kids.

We've been through this. Side bus impacts causing death is extremely rare and the enormous cost is best spent on carbon monoxide detection in schools... Next

Yet again years behind on safety

I cant understand why school buses haven't been mandated for seat belts, personal vehicles have to have them, yet a large vehicle carrying many students dont? The kids are at risk every second on that bus if there is nothing to stop them from becoming a projectile in an accident.

Isn’t one of the main reasons why there isn’t seatbelts because of the complications it would bring with car seats &then the fact of if an accident or evacuation were to happen there wouldn’t be someone to help a fully loaded bus of little kids undo them all creating a big prob?

Agree on this

They need to be bucket seats like every bus but school buses. I'd fund it if Canada gave me my settlement
