A former New York State Assemblyman from Brooklyn has released a video of a driver purportedly using the sidewalk to go around parked school buses, coming within inches of young children.
Dov Hikind says the video was recorded at the Vizhnitz Cheder on 53rd Street in Borough Park, where the buses were dropping off children.

Unfortunately, this isn't the only incident of people with too little patience. I was at a school in a cab (the school doesn't have an official bus and hires cabs along with bus drivers). The cab driver was all the way in the back of the line. Both of the people he was picking up was already in his car. Instead of waiting, he literally did a U-turn onto the grassy hill, onto the sidewalk with kids still being let out through, and out the other way. Needless to say, his boss got a call immediately and he was fired and arrested.

This is very common in NYC. Especially, the outer boroughs. I was working in the Bronx, sitting behind a garbage truck servicing a school. A man in sedan decided to jump the sidewalk and ride it all the way up to the next intersection in a school zone. Very dangerous and reckless.

Something like this happened in my elementary school. I was in the eighth grade. My school closes off the street in front of the school because there are over a thousand people waiting outside for school to begin, they won’t all fit on the sidewalk. Some dude had parked inside the street the day before, and that morning he tried to take his car out. Remember, a near 900 students. He kept inching forward like this guy. Me and my friends stared in disbelief. Eventually a security guard saw it and told him he can’t do it.

I was waiting behind a school bus in front of a school one morning, the kids were about to get off it. It was one lane of traffic, but the road was just wide enough that a car could still go around and squeeze through. The car in back of me began a move to go around me and pass the bus, but I pulled out and blocked it. F that, they weren't getting around if I could stop it.

there was an ADULT THERE! What did he do, NOTHING!! I would stand in the way of this reckless motor vehicle and would have been punching the hood if they tried to move. Call 9-1-1 while blocking this guy. It's sad he wasn't willing to do anything as the only adult around outside of the buses/bus drivers. I see that driver WAS CHARGED. for this, but didn't see what the sentencing would be. This should have included public safety work around schools (if the perp isn't a perv/SO) and loss of privilege to drive, FOREVER. There is no world where this man should ever be able to legally drive again. But likely after fines are paid, this guy was able to get back into his car and endanger the lives of others once again. Our laws around cars, and the willingness for judges to take away such privilege need a lot of work.

He needs to be banned from driving permanently. If he was willing to keep inching forward like he was, I have no doubt he'd have absolutely gunned the gas, and driven over one or several just to avoid having to wait behind the buses. He's a danger to society, with no concern for anyone else's life but his own.
