Student Faints During Hot Bus Ride, Driver Refuses to Open Windows

A video shows students complaining about a hot bus ride and some even getting sick, while a school bus driver refuses to grant their requests to open the windows, reported 3 News Las Vegas.

The video shows the driver saying she will not open the windows because doing so will cause the alarms to go off.

“I don’t care. She could die!” responded a student, referring to another student who was passed out in the bus aisle.  

The driver was terminated, according to the bus company she worked for.
