Living in Kenya, students usually take shared public minibuses, dedicated school vans, or get dropped off by family.
But in American media, no matter what state a movie is set in, there is always that massive, identical yellow bus picking kids up right at the end of their street. Is there a federal law that they all have to look exactly like that, regardless of whether you live in New York or a rural town in Texas?
Also, does almost every kid actually ride them daily, or is that just exaggerated for television?
