Literally, the word bus comes from the Latin word omnibus, which means "for all." Buses were the first form of transportation that were for everyone. School Buses are 70% Safer than Other Vehicles. School Buses Have No Seat Belts. School bus seats (you know, the tall ones that are really close together) are actually designed to keep kids safe, sort of like eggs in an egg carton, or Christmas ornaments in a divided box.
Your normal, average, everyday school bus in Canada can travel at up to 100 km/hr, which is pretty fast. Most school buses in USA are “National School Bus Glossy Yellow,” which is actually an orange/yellow mix, and that’s for safety. Yellow is eye-catching, so it’s easily seen by other drivers and pedestrians.
