But I have learned that if u put all the things I find important into this job, I feel proud when I tell others about it.I have been driving school buses for three years. I have been on route 318 for three years. When I talked about my job and everything it means to me, my face lights up with pride. Being a bus driver is an important job. Bus Drivers have a lot to deal with on day to day bases. A lot of people that all bus drivers do are just drive the bus. That's not true at all.

We use the proper and required signals and make sure traffic has come to a complete stop before loading and unloading students. We instruct the students on the proper and correct ways or methods to board and depart the bus and make sure that these instructions are carefully observed.Controlling pupil behavior on the bus is a big issue that we as drivers have to deal with.

The driver has to be able to drive without any distraction. The bus driver has to maintain complete concentration and stay focus at all.
