    Comments: I totally agree with this comment. At a time when people are being encouraged to use more busses and public transport school buses still don't have seat belts and I for one will not be allowing my child on the bus anymore and I will travel in my car with them safetly belted in and clog up the roads with my car!!!

    Comments: I think that is about time for seatbelts to be put in our school buses! Our number one priority in this country should be our children! It floors me when states take such high priority to notify the public of new seatbelt laws for your vehicle but they do nothing for our children riding unaware of the dangers!

    Comments: It is appalling that our goveernment can't mandate a change in this OLD system. Our children deserve better than this. I couldn't believe it the first time I got on(then off!) a school bvus with my 5 year old and there were no seatbelts. It is absolutely unbelievable! I will support any effort you make to change this-just let me know what I can do. Thankyou for caring! Robin Horton

    Comments: all national.. first of all being a survivor of a school bus accident..and paralyzed from it. I lobby for seat belts nationwideMadonna Long is an advocate for Seat Belts in School Buses Nationwide and School Bus safety. She is a lobbyist for the National Coalition for Safety in School buses and has donated her time and her personal story for the advocacy of this issue. She believes that Safety lies in technology and School Districts taking action to prevent Accidents from Happening. Madonna believes that School bus safety must take place on the Bus and in the Bus. People must be accountable for their actions. School Districts must train and monitor Bus Drivers. Bus Drivers must be screened. School buses need to be maintained and meet Federal Requirements. She believes that Seat Belts are an important device that will prevent injuries and death from happening. Madonna Long (Crosthwaite) was injured her senior year of high school in Utah on a School Bus. Her High School Ski Club was returning from a skiing trip to their home in Kemmerer, Wyoming when the bus lost its brakes and over turned on the Mountain. Madonna was an active member of her community and her school. She was the 1981 Homecoming Queen and was a member of the Varsity Girls Track Team. That day she lost the use of her legs, she was paralyzed from her waist down. That day she lost her best friend Julie, who died on the Mountain that day.. Madonna Long has many accomplishments, she was the First Person West of the Mississippi to walk with Computerized stimulation. She was a business owner of her own Bridal Boutique. Madonna ran for Nevada State Assembly in 1992 and US Senators and Nevada Law makers recommended that she work for Clinton Administration. She is a lobbyist for Seat Belts in School buses, she has helped lawmakers pass legislation in California and helped strengthen laws in New York. She is the mother of four children all who ride school buses. Many articles have been written about her from the Las Vegas Journal, The Las Vegas Sun, Reno Gazette Journal, Wyoming News papers, Sacramento Bee and The Press Enterprise from Southern California.

    Comments: I Would like to tell the Congress and to the public. Please be aware that our children are riding school busses without seatbelts. If we don't make a change to this there will innocent lives put to stake. Think about the safety of our kids. This needs to change We're talking about safety here for our children. Make this a law that safety belts are required and essential for children to put on in school busses.

    Comments: I was home-schooled from Kindergarten till high school graduation, so I was unaware of the lack of seatbelts in the school buses at our rural school. However, my 4 year old son started Pre-K in August, and has already taken 5 trips on the school buses, without the seat belts. I am fanatic about using seat belts, booster seats, car seats, etc. with my 2 sons, and now I find out that anytime he goes on a "fun" field trip, he will be doing so unsafely! Please help us correct this, because children really are a precious commodity.

    Comments: In Maine state law requires all people regardless of age must wear a safety belt at all times. There are strict fines if you break this law. Also, Maine law requires children ages birth to eight years old be riding in a car seat, I don't understand why school buses don't have to follow the law and the rest of us do.

    Comments: It is absolutely ridiculous not to have seatbelts on yellow school buses. The padding on the seat it is not enough to prevent our children from being ejected by a side impact crash or a rollover crash. It is the law to have seatbelts on vehicles and some buses. Why not make it all buses. If I am not wrong, I even think that eighteen wheelers have seatbelts.

    Comments: You're right. Safety is always the main concern: in school, at work, at home, and even making movies. why not in sh=chool buses What, is the money too much for the government to handle Especially if they're children. If one of they're children died (God forbid) then they would pay attention to it, but since they are only the kids of the common people it doesn't matter. Right

This is ridiculous! Children are the most precious of cargo, and they deserve better from their school buses!
