Anti-terrorist school bus drivers

What next? Shall we train taxi drivers too?
At least ex-Dallas SWAT team members can have a job when they retire.

Re: Anti-terrorist school bus drivers
so if the bus drivers are receiving formal training on anti terroist behaviour, do you tink they are getting a big pay rise to take into account the new responsibilities - i didnt think so

Re: Anti-terrorist school bus drivers
When I first heard of this story, thoughts of "Dad's Army" came to mind.
Most school bus drivers are in their 70s.
Coach & Truck Drivers have also been asked to play "Spot The Terrorist" too.
