Drunk bus driver.....

This happened in Jasper, which is at the northern fringe of the Atlanta metro area at the southern end of the Smokies. 60 miles and right at an hour north of Atlanta. It's beautiful up there.

I'd seriously considering whipping this guy's arse if it were one of my children on that bus. Throw him under the jail. Piece of absolute shite. Putting all those innocent kids' lives at risk b/c he's blitzed behind the wheel.

Seriously?

I wonder which lawyer diagnosed those poor kids?

one of the [kids] told her the bus driver smelled like booze. She believes she is the reason Tucker got busted. "We called 911 and reported he smelled like alcohol, and they said they would go back and breathalyze him," the mom said.

Kind of ridiculous the cops didn’t catch this at the time of the accident

Wait, so road beers as a bus driver is a no no?

That’s BS

Dealing with all those little arse holes would make me drink.

Mom must slam glasses of chard all day if her kids know what booze smells like

Drinking, driving, and giving birth to multiple kids? This dude can multitask!

We had one when I was in elementary school. Dude was going like 60 in a 35 and got pulled over. I wasn’t on the bus but had a couple classmates who were on it. Just remember a memo being sent home to all the parents.

I don’t think Pickens County can be considered metro Atl by any stretch. And I’d bet all his passengers / kids are pretty well behaved…good people up there.

I remember back in the day me and my siblings and cousins used to hop in the back of my uncles pick up truck and he would drive us around playing loud music all while drinking beer.

We had the time of our lives

Kids are pussies these days

That's why I said it's on the northern "fringe" in the OP.

It is part of the MSA and the local calling area(770)
