| Fight Between Student & Bus Driver (Long Version) |
 |
Update!!!
Video released Thursday from a camera mounted
inside a Higley Unified School District bus
shows the bus driver engaging in a physical
confrontation with a teenage girl.
The incident happened February 15, when
54-year-old Kim Sullivan was driving students
home from Williams Field High School in
Gilbert.
The video shows Sullivan stopping the bus
after repeatedly warning 15-year-old Samantha
Taylor to sit back in her seat and stop
touching the boy in front of her.
After stopping the bus, Sullivan walked back
toward Taylor's seat and asked her why she
was on the bus, then told her to find another
way to get to and from school.
Taylor tried to exit the bus; Sullivan tried
to push her back into her seat.
Taylor repeatedly yelled at Sullivan to "stop
touching me" and called her mother on her
cell phone.
Sullivan said she was calling police.
The altercation escalated when Taylor handed
Sullivan her phone to speak with her mother,
and Sullivan tossed the phone aside.
Taylor then began screaming at Sullivan, "You
punched me!" though the alleged blow was not
visible on the video.
Another student trying to exit the bus,
14-year-old Cassandra Schlosser, told her
mother on her cell phone that the bus driver
was "like about to get in a fistfight with
Sammy."
About a minute later, the confrontation
turned into a full-blown physical fight when
Taylor moved forward to grab her phone and
Sullivan tried to push her back.
The laughs and jeers of the other students on
the bus turned to gasps of shock that faded
to silence as Taylor and Sullivan continued
to grapple with each other. Though the two
moved forward and out of range of the
camera's lens, the sound of a blow being
struck is clearly heard on the video.
The two moved back into view of the camera
with Sullivan pulling Taylor's hair. At the
same moment, Sullivan's 16-year-old daughter
came running forward, screaming at Taylor to
get off her mother. She grabbed two handfuls
of Taylor's hair and tried to pull the girl
off Sullivan.
She then told Sullivan to get off of Taylor,
but continued to pull Taylor's hair in her
attempts to wrestle Taylor away from her
mother.
Schlosser then joined the melee, yelling at
the Sullivan to get off of Taylor, a few
seconds before a male student came forward
and knocked Sullivan's daughter away from
Taylor.
The fight continued for about another minute,
ending when a tearful Taylor joined the rest
of the students as they exited the bus
through an emergency exit door on the side of
the vehicle.
Sullivan, also in tears, then radioed her
dispatcher, asking, "Where is my help that I
asked for?"
A school district official told the East
Valley Tribune that a school supervisor was
on the way to the bus but was stuck in
traffic. The official said one student called
police while the incident unfolded, but the
students had left the bus by the time
officers arrived.
When a female student approached Sullivan
after the brawl to ask if she was OK,
Sullivan responded, "Yes... it's all on the
tape."
On Friday, the Gilbert Police Department
concluded their investigation. The police
report will be forwarded to the Maricopa
County Attorney's office requesting the
following charged to be filed: Kim Sullivan
with aggravated assault (intentional touching
of a child 15 and under) and disorderly
conduct; Taylor with aggravated assault and
disorderly conduct; and Schlosser and Erin
Sullivan with disorderly conduct.
The school district also conducted an
administrative investigation in conjunction
with police.
On Wednesday, the district sent a letter home
to parents informing them of the incident,
the Tribune reported.
Taylor, Schlosser and Sullivan's daughter
were suspended, and Sullivan was placed on
paid leave, according to the Tribune.
Sullivan has worked as a bus driver for the
district since last June and has driven buses
elsewhere before, the Tribune reported. The
Higley School District is not aware of any
complaints against the driver, a district
official told the newspaper

| Seattle Bus Tunnel |
 |
Buses operating in dedicated transit tunnels
are very rare. One city where this used to be
done was Seattle, Washington State, USA.
Originally opening in September 1990, and
wholly located within the city's 'free
travel' zone the 1 & 1/3rd mile (2.1km)
tunnels were served by a fleet of Italian
Breda duobuses, with some services providing
a direct link to the city's airport.
It featured 5 stations which opened on
Mondays - Saturdays only. At the time of
construction rail tracks were also installed
for a future light rail service.
Unfortunately despite this commendable
forward thinking it was subsequently decided
that part of the light rail line will follow
a different alignment than the existing
tunnels, so on 24th September 2005 the bus
subway was closed for two year period of
rebuilding.
Most of the duobuses were actually withdrawn
well in advance of the closure (with many
being converted to pure trolleybuses for use
on surface routes) and - amazingly - replaced
with diseasal powered buses. (diseasal =
disease diesel)
In April 2005 local users were reporting on
Internet discussion groups that the tunnels
were often somewhat smelly from (what
thinking people know to be) the poisonous
diesel engine exhaust fumes.
Whilst it is true that the buses are diesel
electric hybrids they still needed to use the
fossil fuel traction package whilst
underground, although this was in a special
'hush' mode which means that the only operate
between stations and at much reduced power.
Apparently the choice of fossil fuel buses
was influenced by the transport operators'
belief that it is not possible to mix
overhead wire powered light rail and electric
trolleybuses / duo-buses in an underground
tunnel system - even though Essen proved
otherwise!
In Seattle the buses were driver steered, it
might be assumed that for safety's sake
"some" sort of guidance system would have
been needed - if only to reduce the chance of
a bus accidentally hitting the tunnel wall -
especially within the portion of the bus
subway which featured narrow London
Underground 'tube-like' tunnels (as seen
here), but this was not the situation.
This video compilation was filmed in May
1993. The sequences only follow a cursory
order and because of faulty camcorder lens
optics (which was only discovered once back
home) the images are not as sharp as they
should have been. Which is a shame.
------------------------------
The tunnel reopened on 24th September 2007,
although again for hybrid diseasal buses
only. Tags : seattle bus tunnel metro busway brt transit |
