Who in here has a route like this. A route that you have many narrow roads, some that you can't see more then 6 feet in front of you because or the way the road curves? I say a prayer each time before I head up the hill, it is much worse due to all the snow. I say to myself "please don't be a car coming the other way because only one of us can fit" It is a road that clearly should be a one way, but can't be because of the location and design.

This sounds a lot like a string from last year about cul-du-sacs. Try to keep stops on the main road. Let the kids come down the hill where possible. If you must drive on a narrow, or site impaired road go slow and easy. By the way make sure what your driving on are real roads, and not connected driveways. Of course the final say goes to management, but the final responsibility for the safty of the children is yours. May god bless

the problem that you have sound like a route out in the country where on most of the dirt roads there is omly enough room for one vehicle even in the warm weather but i not suer how your run is set up but in the winter on a dirt road it is even more dangerous cause you have ditches on the side of the roads and you could easily slide into them even with a fully loadfed bus whether a small bu or a large bus. DRIVE SAFELY!!!

Sounds like the route I drive, If you add trees hanging over the road, deer running across the road, steep hills with curves that you can't see around and the road so narrow that 2 feet each way you are in the ditch. And the crazy thing is I wanted this route.
