biplanebluey Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 A school bus is a luxury. In my day we had to walk 10 miles through the snow to get to school, with nothing more than a stale crust for lunch ... before trudging home again.

In my day we had to walk 10 miles through the snow to get to school, with nothing more than a stale crust for lunch ... before trudging home again. Walk to school? You was lucky... we yurs to crawl to school through mud an puddles with nout but crusty cold semolina porridge for lunch.The edmaster woz stand over us with snooker cue saying, 'eat every last piece of stodge you ungrateful sissies, there's kids in Africa who'd die for a plate of this' Aye, they would have, god knows how we survived, but we woz happy. School!!! Aw you looky buggers, when I were a lad my old man sent me straight to work 'ouse at half past five int mornin'. We had to catch our own food if we wanted the luxury of eatin'. Cockroaches, mice and an occasional fat rat if we was lucky. School, you dunno 'ow lucky you was. But we managed a smile even when we was walkin' five miles 'ome at nine at night in't pourin' rain. . Right. We had to get up half an hour before we went to sleep, pay the mill owner to let us work there for 18 hours a day, and when we got home in the evening our father would murder us in cold blood and dance upon our graves singin 'allelujah. Course these kids today have it easy.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bheard Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Of course the driver would claim only 12 - presumably that's the number of sests and therefore the legal max number of passengers. The school I was at for a while (out in the sticks) packed them in - one day I saw the driver with a kid on his lap while driving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dublin Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Funny how this sort of thing is so wrong in BKK, just get out of the cities, where traffic moves faster and the school buses are bigger, kids have to ride on the roof... DSCN2400.JPG [OK none on top in this photo, but if ever you you have been out in the sticks you would be blind not to see kids riding on top of these buses] Was going to say the same thing , very common up my way for the older kids to sit on the roof and smoke so they can squash more of the smaller kids in the back,,,, Schools should be held responsible.. and I'm fully aware these guys work privately and not for the schools most of the time.

Jim walker Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Driver Innocent as usual would the kids be playing and laughing if the uninsured van unregistered School bus was sandwiched between two lorries breaking the speed limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuwadeeS Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 School bus driver all sh... and the most vans are not save and should deposited in the press.. Futher, he is a liar, cause I see them every day. All over any gov. and some private schools, as well. They are crowded with usually 25 to 30 kid. where is Prayuth to bring some rules or a law to set up a safe standard for school vans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A1Str8 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 They were not playing. That is obvious. So if they decide to cram them like that to save money, then be a man and take responsibility for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ratcatcher Posted September 8, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 8, 2014 Well aside from the serious problem of an overcrowded school van, a big hand for all the Monty Python fans who continued Prbkks original mention of hardship and school.. It is a shame the Python boys are not around as much as before, they could surely inject a sense of humor into TAT's advertising campaigns. For the few that are unfamiliar, an introduction to civil madness. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonmarleesco Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Then perhaps someone should be exercising better control over the kids, and not necessarily the driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tokay Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 1000b fine. Though, I'm not sure who to blame. The driver or the parents who knowingly put their kids into that van. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrowe1973 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Maybe the driver had extremely bad gas and he farted. All the children ran to the back of the bus and pressed themselves agaist the windows for fresh air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pundi6446 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Ya looks like a bunch of discarded backpacks to me, don't see any kids with them on, driver must have been right, only 12 kids in the van, not over crowded at all, wait just a second there is a kid attached to a backpack, oh wait there is another, and another, oh and yet another, now looks to be about 25 or so kids in the van, oh but can't be, the driver wouldn't lie, now would he??????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
