I pulled over to the side of the road if it was too loud.

if the bus was a tolerable noise level the kids could have the radio station they wanted.
They got loud, they got classical.
They got too loud, they got a bus driver that sat on the side of the road.

On the other hand, I did talk to my kids.

Yeah, I understand the pulling over (been on a few bus rides where they have done that), but this guy was just insane. He would freak out over EVERYTHING.

That was the up side of starting to be a school bus driver at the ripe old age of 20.
And a down side too...

I didnt freak out nearly as much.
