School busses usually drive around empty, I'm afraid. In the morning they make an empty run to the end of the route and pick kids up on the way back. Later they drop them off and come back empty for the night. Unless the driver lives at the end of the route and has talked the school district into letting him keep the bus overnight.

Aaaah, the days when we walked to school...
