> A bus is not easy to drive. What you described is probably an inexperienced driver over-correcting for the sway. The higher the center of gravity, the more difficult it is to control the condition. The first time it happens you really have your hands full. When I started driving about 51 years ago, almost all vehicles had a high CG plus terrible shocks (dampers) and narrow tires, so that kind of thing happened more often than it does now. And you are correct. School buses are among the least stable vehicles on the road. Do they have seat belts on that bus?

First, this wasn't a school bus. I don't take those because they cost too much and I live too far away. This was on a public transit bus, owned and maintained by the City of Edmonton. So, that means their rapidly falling into disrepair, unfourtunatly. They have no seat belts, but they do have a whole bunch of people standing up in the center isle....
I think they don't put seat belts on buses because people get on and off so much. Even if buses had seatbelts, I doubt many would wear them. I guess that makes buses just that much more dangerous.
