Those US school buses look like they were designed in the 1940s to me. Is
there some reason they can't use a modern bus but have to use some archaic
throwbacks?
They are robust and reliable. Why is anything more luxurious required?
So is a horse and cart. Also I'd be amazed if their crash worthiness and fuel
economy is as good as a normal bus.
Are the kids required to wear seat belts on them? If not, the bus
crashworthiness hardly matters.
