Canadian school buses are called “the safest school buses in the world”. All the school buses, which are in deep yellow, have the same style. School bus drivers have to receive strict training before getting driver’s licenses. When a school bus runs through the city and carries children to a stop, the driver will turn on the red light and then show the sign “Stop”. At this time, all the vehicles(车辆) following the school bus must stop as if they met a red light. After all the children get on or off, the school bus will drive away. Then other vehicles can go on.

Many people will think of cartoons as soon as they talk about Japanese school buses which are usually in pink or blue. For a long time, cartoon pictures on school buses have already been popular and become models of Japanese school buses. When children see pink Hello Kitty or blue Doraemon, no one will refuse to go to school any more. On Japanese school buses, there’s always a headman caring for kids. If something happens suddenly, the headman will tell parents about it as soon as possible. |
