when i was in high school i lived in rural northern michigan. 22 miles one way. first stop in the AM last after school. typically an hour on the bus.Two reasons in this rural area for driving kids to school is that the bus doesn't go that far out. And that the kids sit on the bus for up to an hour.
i could get there and back quicker if i drove myself. a bonus to that- in the winter i could ride my snowmobile. drove my dirt bike a couple of times in the fall and spring,too.
if i lived 1 mile down the road i would have been in a different school district. it would have only been 18 miles to school.
