Twenty-six school bus drivers attended the course ar- ranged by Richard Tribbling of Tribbling's Bus Lines. It was presented by the Transporta- tion Safety Association of Can- ada and the Accident Preven- tion Department of the Work- men’s Compensation Board. In- structors were Dennis Hill and William Murray. In the group there were nine women and 17 men from Mort- son Bus Lines. Reid Bus Lines (operated by Donald Tribbling) and Tribbling's Bus Lines (op- erated by Richard Tribbling). Heise’s Buses were not rep- resented. Mr. Hill stressed the impovt- ance of drivers keeping up with change and Mr. Murray pointed out the necessity for defensive driving. The latter stressed LIGHT as a safety factor -â€" see and be seen. Windshield wipers are important in this category. Drivers of public vehicles must adest to road and weather :conditions â€"â€" fog, rain, sleet, snow, smoke, road construction, grading, curves, hills, concealed intersections, type of pavement. “Unless you make allowances for rthese you are in trouble.” he warned. Traffic conditions which specifically affect school bus drivers were studied -â€" rush hour, day of week. holiday weekends, etc. The manner in which a bus Is driven is also dependent on the area â€" shop- ping centres, main highways and ,farm machinery or live- stock/ on the roadway. Condition of both vehicle and its driver is of the utmost im- portance, the intent group was told. “You cannot drive safely without proper brakes, lights, tires, steering, defrosting, muff- ler, stoplights â€"â€" and the driver ‘must be in good mental and physical condition. If he or she is sleepy, angry, worried. or afraid, he is a poor risk." Defensive driving is import- ant in keeping out of accidents in spite of conditions, the in- structor stated. “Ordinarily a driver can handle one driving hazard, but there are times when everything bad could gang up on you. In such cases driver education helps the driver to recognize the hazard. Markham Township understand the defence and act In time to prevent an acci- dent.” “In defensive driving." Mr. Hill continued, "the proper ap- proach to any trip is a mental inventory. Are there any un- usual conditions? Is the vehicle i}; top order? Is the driver rested or tired? Has he had medication?" The simplest accident should be reported to the employer, so he may determine the cause. according to Mr. Hill. “Chance alone determines the severity of an accident, that is why even the most minor must be investi- gated." he said. “It the driver was in error the company wants to correct the situation before a serious accident occurs." An important safety rule is to allow plenty of following distance, one vehicle length for every 10 mph of speed. he noted. He also pointed out that the lady behind the wheel whose skirt is too tight is a haz- ‘ard; the driver who hugs the ‘centre line instead of keeping to the extreme right is another. The danger of driving in ex- treme 'weather conditions was also stressed â€"â€" "Stop and wait for conditions to clear", was his advice. Mr. Hill also told his pupils, "When you have that profes- sional licence, you have a moral obligation to drive safely at all times.” He warned that in driving, haphazard experience is a poor teacher â€"â€" a high degree of knowledge, is best obtained from experienced instructors in a good course. The drivers found a great deal of help in films depicting various traffic situations and the accidents which resulted. But to one question about a school bus driver's daily prob- lems, the instructors had no answer. To the query, “Have you any help on handling child- ren in buses?” the reply was, “not in this course". Mr. Murray explained after- ward ihat his association has no such instructiOn available. but recommended a film put out by the American National Safety Council, designed to be shown‘ in schools, and in which child- ren participate in the right and wrong way to behave on a school bus. He said the film costs about $300, but school boards may find it helpful in clearing up behaviour problems on school buses. Selling Somefihingifi . _. Usev The Classified Phone 884-1105-6 Now! CORRESPONDENT: MRS. F. H. LEAF I ‘ Neighborhood Notes Don Mills is slated for new widenings within the next year or two, at least below Highway 7.

WTh’é Ernie Waltons were guests of friends at Newcastle last week. The salty comment of a bus driver in the Bayview area, who was dodging school chil- dren on their way home for lunch one day last week. is worth repeating. He had just been obliged to stop‘his vehicle and warn a teenager «in a bicycle to watch where he was going. He started the bus and saw through the rearwiew mirror that the youngster was weaving on his merry way in a manner no wiser for the warning: “Kids don’t listen!" he worried. “A couple of good belts on the backside might clean out their ears!"
