    I think it was that someone had enough of trying to strap in their own five year-olds and drive somewhere and didn't want to put that kind of living hell on a bus driver.

    Studies have shown that adding seat belts to the current seating configuration of a school bus can increase the chance of head and neck injuries. For a seat belt to be effective, it must be worn correctly, snug and on the upper thighs. Because school vehicles carry passengers from the very young to high school students, if seat belts were used, they would need to be readjusted and their use monitored. A seat belt not worn correctly may cause serious injuries.

    no one wants to pay for them.

    Although,I must say that in Canada (vancouver) school buses do have seat belts. At least the ones that i have seen numerous times do.
