If the parents gave their kids home training, he never woulda had to do that 🤷♀️
This bus driver needs backed up by the American people! This right here is what’s wrong with America too many wussy’s out there anymore . And no one teaching or parenting their kids right or respect
Did they learn😅
😢😢
There should be another member of school staff with the kids on the bus then the children will sit sensibly with seat belts
😂 funny video
I see nothing wrong with this..he taught Them a lesson…
How did any of them get cuts, and bruises,
he barley tapped the breaks, and those kids barley moved! I calll B.s on this one.
Dude that wasn’t that bad! He’s attempting to teach these kids a lesson and he did so. This is a product of bullshit overreacting woke people getting butthurt about things that really aren’t that deep…..
I agree with everyone he was telling kids to be in the seats. He did not deserve to be fired
It could have been a lot worse had it been another vehicle hitting that bus them kids would have been hurt. That was a lesson he was able to teach them them parents would be crying and maybe even burying them, never being able to hold them ever again. This world is so backwards! Sad.
This is such bullshit…..you know parents have a choice ….take your kids to school your own self. No one ever reports on how school bus drivers get abuse by kids, their parents., the school district, and the school bus company they work for. They get kicked on, spit on, threaten by them and their parents, the schools staff and the school district never support school bus drivers. Its never reported how these kids come on the bus with drugs and knifes. How drivers ask for help from school principles and their own managers but nothing is ever done. They would rather fire a driver so they get the heat off them instead of helping a driver out. Kids know that no one does anything so they just continue their bad behavior and like to push you too a breaking point. When you point things out to parents about their kids behavior on the bus they act like drivers must be mistaking because it surely couldnt be their kid acting up…….next time you want to report on a school bus driver and thier behavior ask what what made him do it…..
These kids should have been taught to respect the bus drivers words so something like that wouldn’t have to be implemented. But I’m sure every single parent of those kids would have gotten mad at the bus driver had he suspended them instead.
This is how my dad taught me when growing up and refusing to wear the seatbelt. Gets the point across in a low risk way (he was slowing down already, going 9 mph). Better than any scolding or rules a teacher could set (just to have some kids want to break them).
I have NO ISSUES WITH THIS!!
He must have done it at a safer speed
One kid is wearing a helmet smart kid all he needs is a gun to fix problem. With driver.
Most of the kids were sitting in their seats and were still punished with violence! The people ignoring that and supporting the driver are supporting child abuse.
They are still kid’s so take it easy with them all please
Driving alone is frustrating, then add responsibility for 30 children. 😅 With that said, this driver must be fired because we can’t allow someone to use physical harm to teach kids a lesson. I slammed on my breaks when I was a new driver to teach my younger sister to always wear a seatbelt. You can’t understand how important a seatbelt is, until you peel your face off the dash.
BS Charges o-0! What would of happened if the Driver needed to slam on the breaks while on the route? Only going faster in Traffic!
He did nothing wrong . What do you think would happen if he got into a crash and they died ???? The people who fired him needs to be fired .
This is BS
I can’t explain how annoying it is to have people who won’t sit down and stop moving around while you’re driving. It’s distracting and incredibly frustrating. It’s also beyond dangerous. That does even include when it’s a BUNCH of moving, yelling kids.
This man should not have been fired. He tried to teach the children how important it is to be in their seat. A shame for all parents who have not managed to teach their children this.
Где ремни безопасности???????
Good driver
There is a lot of comments here that say the parents are responsible for the kids and not the bus driver, and I understand that.
But when this bus driver stopped in the middle of the road when there could have been cars right behind the bus and they rear ended them, along with the kids who are standing will fly out and die from breaking their neck or flying out of the windows, there is zero excuse for the bus driver to not take responsibility for his actions regardless. What if one of the kids got injured, or worse a casualty happed in the process? How would you deal with that kind of scenario? Would more death satisfy, or be ignorant enough to not acknowledge stuff like this happen?
Good lesson
He should be given a raise.
He just taught the kids a simple lesson.
Our bus driver had to slam the brakes and slid the bus sideways. That was in 1978 and we were in our seats.
No one was hurt. 🤔
That's not part of the job
Fired for using the brakes on the bus 😂
I drive a school bus and 9 mph I don't see how they got cuts and buses ijs where's the proof
No way.He did right
He didn’t slam on the brakes, he just applied the brakes, it hurt bcuz they weren’t sitting like told. Someone give this driver an even better job!! I like his style
Sometimes a good lesson hurts, isn’t the alternative much much worse?? ❄️ Z -The Making Of
what is the difference? even they are in their seats still nothing is change when they break like that? as long as the bus dont have seat belt still the outcome will be the same.
He just did more parenting in 10 seconds than these kids have had in a while.. Give him a raise..
Good they charged and fired him. I don't even like kids, but he definitely deserved his punishment (because some of the kids were kindergarten age.)
On the other hand, I DO agree with SOME of the other comments here. Those kids were also pretty obnoxious and clearly not listening.
The point is, I guess the bus driver could've handled this much differently. 🤷♂️
I'll never understand why they just don't make seat belts in all schoolbuses tho, and make it a rule where the kids HAVE to use them. Problem solved, really. I swear common sense doesn't exist in this world. 🤦♂️🤣
If there’s anybody here that can get this man a job and have his back, please help him. Those spoiled brats weren’t listening to him. The lesson he taught them was subtle. That man spoke to them MULTIPLE times.
Ridiculous
Ok and when your kids back gets crushed by the same school district because they can not sit right and someone cuts him off goung 30mph and he slamms the brakes it be much worse and broken backs. He slammed the breaks yes but that slow slam in real one going 30 its instant foot down!!!
I have a question, why don't they have a bus attendant to check everyone elses safety? And no seatbelts for very young kids? Some bus got TV/screen on so kids will silently watch..
the school bus here where I work got a bus attendant (normally, teachers/assistant teachers would do shifting over time for this.. they will have the check list of all kids on board and they will check it when they drop off the kid , whether their parents are waiting on the drop off or not- if not, the assistant needed to walk the kid to their home to make sure they can safely return.
Sometimes, there are activities inside the bus, we do sing- we do watch and sometimes give them a nap time.
Keep spoiling kids… and the world would suffer more in the future… he did nothing wrong.. I'm an assistant teacher and I really felt like some parents are over reacting at times and I don't know why they are raising their kids like that.. my co-teacher punished a kid for pushing his classmate while eating lunch, for the disciplinary action he made the kid face the wall for 10minutes while explaining what he did wrong.. guess what, the following day he was suspended for a week – cuz' that boy's mom was a known doctor around the town. 🙄 like, really? Your boy doesn't even want to apologize and he even screamed and cursed his teachers, he even throws food trays if he doesn't like the lunch menu 😅 teach your son good manners… this driver didn't harm these kids- he is showing a sample, a good experience for kids to learn…
