Twice in the last five days in the city of Paterson, new Jersey, was discovered children sleeping inside the cabin of two school buses.
The first incident occurred last Friday when a six year old girl left alone in an empty bus after the driver took all the children to kindergarten at the elementary school Dale Avenue.
History exactly-in-exactly repeated on Monday, only in the school transport has already fallen asleep six-year-old student of the first class of the Urban Leadership Academy. While the bus companies and the drivers were different.
In both cases assistants drivers have not fulfilled their duties, namely not checked all seat buses, as soon as the children left the transport.
Noticing the absence of children in the classroom, the teacher called their parents, but knowing that the last time they saw their children entering the bus, they got in touch with transport companies.
As long as they were not found, both of the child held in an empty bus for about an hour. The boy was found when the transport followed a different route, and the girl – when the driver arrived at a gas station.
In the end, the children brought back to school, but after school they have taken away parents. None of the kids were not injured.
Both incidents led to the dismissal of two drivers of school buses and two assistants, and each of the transport companies – A-1 Elegant Tours and US Student – fined in the amount of $1,000.
