The bus driver cannot drive and I would absolutely not trust them with my children inside. While dropping kids off at Sooner Elementary the bus driver made a right turn in front of a car who was in front of them already trying to turn in. When I called to put in a complaint to the facility, the person who answered the phone didn’t seem to care at all. This was extremely unsafe for everyone.
