The last double decker bus used in regular service in the US ran in NY
City in about 1945.

Where are we supposed to get buses like that? From England, where they
have to be shipped overseas and board people on the wrong side anyway?

And you're suggesting that school districts should pay the freight for
HUGE, ungainly buses rather than educating kids?

Get real.
