4. You would think the driver was responsible for safety.

The driver on this particular bus acknowledged that "fighting" in the back of the bus was what was thought to cause the noise of repeated rapes on that bus of a 6-yr. old by an 11 yr. old. Those 'fights' happened regularly and obviously not instigated by the driver's 6 yr. old charge.
I cannot imagine any scenario where that driver did not pull the bus over and take charge for the sake of safety. The driver knew the age variety and that this "fighting" was way at the back of the bus. Kids up and out of their seats is a safety problem, but thinking they are out of their seats and fighting in the back is full-on alarm bells.
