How come school buses do not have seat belts for the children. Do you think that it is a safety issue?
Well, i think that school busses don't have seat belts because the school trusts the bus driver to be safe. Also, the bus driver expects the children to stay in their seats. But some buses do have seat belts, and I bet thoes shools are very safe. Yes, I do think it is a safety issue because there would be a lot of kids being injured if the bus had an accedent.School buses do not have safety belts for all passengers, though there are four safety belts in the front two rows which are required by law. These belts are used to secure child-seats.The reason there are no seat belts for children in school buses is simple:In the event of an accident, children that are injured,semi-conscious, in shock, frightened, etc, would likely need assistance unlatching a seat belt.Do you think the bus driver would have time to free all the children from safety seat belts in the event of an accident? And what if the drive is incapacitated? Who will help then?Common sense tells us that safety belts would hinder evacuation procedures in the event of an accident. That's why there are no seat belts in buses!Full size school buses are designed for crash safety. High back seats, smooth edges....so if the bus flips kids will bounce around but not be hindered by belts abd buckes. Also, if a bus were on its side, six kids would be piled on each other in a row and the belts would not allow them to escape. Kids alos tend to use belts as weapons to hurt each other. Plus, who is going to monitor the kids to see if they keep them on...the driver has enough responsibility.

Why don't adults have to wear seat belts?
Last I heard, New Hampshire is the only state in the U.S. not to have passed laws making adults (driver, as well as passenger/s) in automobiles subject to a fine. This began with driver's who had been stopped for moving violations, or otherwise, facing legal penalty for not wearing safety belts. However, as of now, law enforcement in many states may pull vehicles over and issue citations if the officer feels a driver/passengers are neglecting to wear their safety belts.
