pillow son you promise to learn all there is to know about the care feeding and kind treatment of school buses I promise but who will teach me well who else your mother [Music] I get to keep you big yellow fella [Music] all sorts of things you have to know about school buses son some of the things you need to know have to do with what happens before you get on like making sure you're on time for your bus in the morning when you're going to school the big yellow fella hates to be late so give yourself plenty of time to get up get dressed and have breakfast if you have to walk along the road to your bus stop remain on the left side of the road facing the traffic and stay on the sidewalk or path while you're waiting for your bus stay off the street the street is much too dangerous a place for you to wait we don't want you hurt okay now I'm on the left side of the street but here comes my big yellow fellow on the right side that is a problem we'll have to cross the street now let's make sure that we look both ways before Crossing all clear has the bus really stopped good question be certain that it has and be sure that all the traffic is stopped great let's go pretty big bus Dad should I go in front of it behind it or under it in front always and make sure that the driver can see you oh and if you drop anything underneath or in front of the bus tell the driver before you get it say look who's driving today Mom watch your step and use the handrail when you get on and off the bus Jackie you don't want to fall or flip gee if Mom can drive the bus I guess anyone can hold it young man not just anyone can be a professional school bus driver it takes many hours of driver training a physical examination and first aid study around the wheel right now your right turn signal start your turn wide curved mirror [Music] that's good now [Music] your school bus driver wants to get you from home to school and back safely you want your driver to pay attention to the driving well what can a little bell like me could help big people like you drive a bus too loud huh can't hear you mom don't talk so loud that you'll disturb the bus driver it's especially important to be quiet at railroad crossings so the driver can hear if a train is near foreign may I talk to my driver saying good morning is a nice way to start when you leave the bus tell the driver if you've seen any damage to the bus anything torn or broken or if there's anything left behind if you want to open a window on the bus be sure to ask the driver for permission oh mom got a problem what's that well what if a little fell like me riding a big yellow bell like this you need to talk to someone and the driver's busy sometimes there are special people on the bus ready to help your dad is here to tell you a little bit more about riding a school bus we want to make sure you stay safe on the bus Jackie remember keep your head hands and arms inside the bus you could injure yourself very seriously if they're outside you can't be quiet sit down get your heads and arms back inside that bus you know there's something else that should stay inside the bus and that's anything you bring on board don't throw things out the windows but maybe I'll see a friend of mine and I'll have a piece of gum I want him to have so I'll just toss it to him and no throwing any kind of object at the bus window can be very dangerous and is always against school rules when you have trash save it until you leave the bus and take it to a wastebasket and don't throw things at the bus either a snowball or a rock isn't funny if the driver's distracted and loses control the lives of many children including you Jackie are in the driver's hands so drop the Snowballs and rocks and don't bring any snow sticky things loose foods or anything else that could spill melt or stick to the seats or floor maybe if I'm not a fireman astronaut or president of the United States I might decide to be a school bus driver an honorable profession I assure you but don't forget drivers have important responsibilities accidents can happen on the bus should be a first aid kit fire extinguisher flags and reflectors [Music] practice drills should be held by the school to help children know the best way to leave a bus in case of trouble foreign the driver will usually be the last person off the bus to see that no one is Left Behind well I guess we know everything now right big yellow bell and I will get along just fine it might be true Jackie if you were the only passenger Joey Millie Billy and Lily bran and Jen and Fred and Ned all of you are riding with me lots of children ride the big yellow fellow that's why we have rules to keep everyone safe and happy don't bring real big things on the bus there might not be room on the bus for you if you have very large objects ask someone to drive you to school keep the bus aisle clear of all objects we don't want anyone to fall on the way to a seat keep your books and legs out of the aisle we want to keep the aisle clear in case of emergencies also boys and girls should always stay Behind These Bars don't try to do your homework on the bus you may hurt yourself and somebody else with pins and pencils when you're on the bus active if you're in the classroom sit quietly and don't misbehave foreign stop and somebody does misbehave and doesn't follow the rules talk to the driver later [Music] you know just as there are rules for getting on the big yellow Phillip there are some things to do when you get on that's it use the handrail again and watch your step when you get off walk away from the bus about 10 steps ahead of it along the edge of the road stay inside of the driver so he knows just where you are at all times is that about it there sure is a lot of things about just to get a ride to school the most important things are to treat others softly sit quietly and listen to your driver well having a big yellow fell of my own seems unfair I mean some children might not even get to school because of me [Music] five bucks how many times now if you've done this to me next time I'll take away your key better week this bus belongs to you sir indeed it does and my card Professor Popper's pedigree Pekingese puppies I'm glad you said it I never could get it all out I've run on a beating school and these are my students well sir my son Jackie's become quite attached to your bus we're all gonna miss it the lad recovered today I know he'll miss it and say because he got a pit an animal of his own exactly well he once had a spider yeah and now
