    School busses don’t have adult strangers and other issues tied to them. They only go from people’s homes to school and back.

      What issues do adult strangers cause? And what are the other issues? Also legs work pretty good to get to a bus station, I hear kids have those.

        Well for starters a not insignificant number of people of the city buses are homeless with mental health issues. They could get violent when teased by a child. Then there are the drug addicts, and the human waste that somehow appears on buses around the country daily.
