	School bus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A school bus or school omnibus is a bus used to transport children and adolescents to and from school.
		Early school buses primarily served rural areas where it was deemed impractical for the young students to walk the distances necessary to get back and forth from school on their own, and were sometimes no more than a truck with perhaps a tarpaulin stretched over the truck bed.
		A bus accident at Carrollton, Kentucky in 1988 involving a church bus which had been originally built and served as a school bus was one of the worst bus accidents in United States history.

	Science Fair Projects - Church bus and school bus safety
		The National Transportation Safety Board determined "the probable cause of the collision between the pickup truck and the church activity bus was the alcohol-impaired condition of the pickup truck driver who, operated his vehicle opposite to the direction of traffic flow on an interstate highway."
		School bus regulations have been changed to require roof hatches, emergency exit windows, and a wider space to reach the emergency door and its controls.
		If the church bus is to be used for local and some limited long-distance travel, your church should seriously consider using chartered commercial buses by licensed providers with a good safety record for the longer trips instead of your church bus.

	JS Online: School buses found to be safer than vans
		School buses, unlike standard passenger vans, have special rollover protections and encase their occupants in a cocoon of padded seats and seat backs.
		In addition, school buses are painted an eye-catching yellow and equipped with emergency exits, special warning lights and movable arms that block students from walking directly in front of them.
		A "non-conforming bus" is any vehicle that can carry 10 or more people and is used to take students to school or school-related activities, yet does not meet federal school bus standards.

	School Bus Fleet Magazine Forums - May 14, 1988---Kentucky School Bus Crash

		Unless church buses are transporting school-age children to and from school or school-related activities, they do not have to conform to the same stringent construction standards traditional yellow school buses do.
		In what remains the deadliest drunk driving accident in U.S. history, on May 14, 1988 in Carollton, Ky., a retired school bus being used as a church's activity van was struck by a drunk driver heading northbound in the southbound lanes of a major freeway.
