How Safe Are Kids on Seat Belt-Less School Buses?

Рет қаралды 232,978

Ай бұрын

Bryson and his younger brother Rigel were headed to their first day of school when police say a car drifted across the lane and crashed into their school bus. There were no seat belts on the bus. Sadly, one of their classmates died. It’s a tragedy their mom, Brittany Fisher, believes seat belts could have prevented. Seat-belt safety expert Melissa Dobbs invited Inside Edition to a special testing facility to see how violent bus crashes can get when kids aren’t buckled up safely.

Risk of seatbelts on school buses, if in accident or even hard breaking from driver could cause students to choke or get whiplash from its tightness. Involved side impact could also involve whiplash or choking. If to be on its side or upside down, it may be hard to reach or find the seat belt buckle, which is dangerous in critical situations if stuck or upside down. Risk without seatbelts if in accident or hard breaking could involve slamming forwards into seat ahead or danger of students falling out of seat or whiplash. If it's a side impact the students could be in danger falling or get flung to one end and if sideways or upside down they may fall to one end with risk of serious injury like concussions. Both ways have pros and cons with certain outcomes in situations depending on the danger. The students and bus driver and others on the road will have a positive or negative impact to either prevent or lessen result.

I guess the question is, what's worse flipping and be trapped in the seat upside down, or flipping without the belts and being tossed around like a pinball, and how likely is a fire opposed to a common road collision? Seatbelts have never been absolute, they mitigate general accidents, there's extreme scenarios where seatbelt or no fatality is inevitable, counter arguing with specific situations in mind does not eliminate the advantages of seatbelts altogether.

Studies have shown bus fires aren’t the most common bus incident, injuries from crashes have happened in larger numbers than bus fires. And even if the bus doesn’t have belts, there have been bus fires that have killed students. A fire suppression system would be a safer option to add than to not have seatbelts. And in the worst case you can design them with an automatic release system that activates shortly after the crash.

My bus have seat belts but for some reason students don’t use them edit: I think it’s so stupid that they don’t make it a rule because I don’t want kids to die from an accident think how it would impact your friends family everyone in school it would be so sad so it’s so stupid when kids don’t put it on they just wanna be cool not knowing what the consequences could be if god decides it’s not your day

because you literally have to everywhere else... on busses it's more or less a choice,even if its a rule....its a bus,how you gonna constantly check? plus bus antics aren't the same with a belt.

All buses, school and collective, should have seatbelts pronto! I always hold onto something when I ride a bus, but it’s still not safe enough!

Was on a school fieldtrip yesterday, it was a hour away, and there was so many bumps, and dangerous sights. One of the students literally hit their head on the top of the bus due to the bumps. It aint safe

That kid shouldn't gut up and walked around in the bus anyways, lesson learned.

I never really thought of this happening.. It's been quite a while since I rode a bus.. I mean our bus was hit by a motorcyclist one time.. that was pretty much nothing.. just heard a thud and felt a tiny shake.. We were at a rail road crossing and stopped looking up and down the tracks when suddenly thud!

I got into a bus accident back in 2016, it was on the way back from cicis pizza and we were having a great time. All of a sudden we got rearended by someone who may have been drinking. That but had lap belts but it didn’t help that the seats were attached to the walls of the bus. People still got hurt including me straining my back. It was scary and my parents never let me do that fundraiser again 😅

I always wondered why there were no seatbelts in school busses. It always seemed a little strange to me.

@Revkor Ай бұрын

its an evacuation issue. if a bus does get in an accident a fire could happen and belts would hinder an evac

@darkraiking680 Ай бұрын

@@Revkor That is what I assumed, though that unfortunately leaves these crashes as a fatal flaw.

Having seat belts in a school bus is a catch 22 situation. A bus in flames can be fully engulfed in under 5 minutes. Depending on the cause and reason trying to evacuate a bus while trying to unbuckle students will cause even more fatalities then a crash like this. It was never about money. Don't believe that it's about the cost.

@Leojw10 Ай бұрын

Here in England uk public transport like trains and buses dont use seatbelts. But they feel safe to travel on

@ffjsb Ай бұрын

"81 fatal wrecks" Yeah that includes deaths in the OTHER vehicles, and pedestrians hit by the bus. Shoddy reporting at BEST. And they even show that someone has to buckle the kids in. Who's going to UNBUCKLE THEM in a fire??? The FACTS show that for the hundreds of millions of miles school busses travel, the compartmentalization and padding is safe. And seat belts won't make a difference if the bus is hit by a semi...

@TomikaKelly Ай бұрын

So the kids should opt to die by collision rather than dying by fire...

@Roblocksgaming Ай бұрын

“Unbuckle them in a fire?” they can make a system that unbuckles seatbelts automatically. “Other cars and pedestrians.” there have been more incidents of crashed and hijacked School Buses more than you think.

I work in transportation in the private sector. Safety is always our biggest priority qhatever the cost. When the public sector turns around and says it costs too much, there is something severely wrong with their priorities.
