The kids were being rowdy for no reason. The driver was pissed as it is, and then that one kid just had to open his big mouth.
Still no reason to beat up the kid, what an ass.

Kids ARE rowdy for no reason.
The guy obviously has no control and the only way to enforce it is thru violence

Yeah.
It'd be interesting to read an article about this, I wonder what happened to the driver..

i'm pretty sure he got fired, sued, and spend some time in jail.

Fight Between School Bus Driver, Boys Caught On Tape
POSTED: 11:50 am EDT May 23, 2005
PUNTA GORDA, Fla. -- The mother of two boys whose fight with a substitute school bus driver was captured on videotape has questioned why the boys are charged with a felony while the driver faces a less serious charge. Sherri Shaw said Monday that she's not satisfied with the punishment facing driver Albert Taylor. He has been charged with misdemeanor battery and could spend a year in jail if convicted. Video
Caught On Tape: School Bus Driver Strikes Student
Mark Ernest Dickinson, 15, and his stepbrother, Corey Gene Hendershot, 13, were arrested last week and charged with assault on a school official, a felony punishable by up to five years in a juvenile justice facility, said Russell Kirshy, the family's attorney. A bus security camera videotape of the fight has been played extensively on national television. According to Charlotte County sheriff's reports, the fight happened Tuesday when Taylor tried to put a seat belt on Hendershot, who refused to wear it. He then told Hendershot to sit up front, but the boy refused. When Taylor walked to the back of the bus, Dickinson got in his way and cursed at him. Taylor then slapped Dickinson and grabbed his throat, the video shows. Dickinson is seen pushing and punching the 66-year-old bus driver. The boys' father, David Shaw, said the older teen felt he was protecting his younger brother. The father acknowledged that the boys could have been calmer, but said the punishment doesn't fit the crime. Taylor has been suspended without pay.AP ImageAlbert M.

A number listed for an Albert Taylor in the area was disconnected and he could not be reached for comment Monday. Florida began requiring all new school buses to have seat belts in 1999, but wearing them is not a requirement.Copyright 2005 by The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

It was one thing for the kid in the white shirt to stand up and instigate the way he did, but now we find out he was defending his little brother. He just should have waited to see if the driver was even gonna do anything other than yell at the kid though first instead of doing what he did.
