Utica Community Schools is hosting a "drive a bus" event to encourage the community to come out and see just what driving a school bus is like. The hope: That some will find it easy and apply amid a widespread school bus driver shortage.

Ok, driving a bus isn't hard, however the pain it causes to your body, having to deal with 65+kids acting up, watching them while watching the road. It's so hard.

Yeah, it's a whole lot easier without a load of kids on board. But of course they didn't mention that.

I talked to a guy who drives a school bus in Wichita, Kansas, and he said the discipline is very strict, and there is a heavy penalty for kids that don't behave. He has had no problem with kids while driving.

Keep your hands, on the wheel. And don't turn your head, while you don't have control.

Try it with 3 screaming kids in every seat from directly behind you to the back on both sides of the aisle. That is why most people don't want to do it. Personally, I thrive on it.........
