So that brings things back to why, in an assigned seating situation, were these 9 kids the ones assigned to sit on laps.

I think it isn't 9 kids "two" individual seats but 9 kids two seats that are supposed to seat 2 kids a piece...ie. 9 kids into 4 seats; or 5 more butts than seats.

It is done all the time here in Portland. My kids bus takes close to 60 kids home every afternoon with only 20 seats(desgined to seat 40).
