Mid to late 90's is when the paint scheme was introduced in my district (Lamar CISD Richmond, TX). When I started Kindergarten I recall the old school buses in my district were stick shifts.
I can confirm that... working at a car lot when I was younger the only thing that made a difference on the interior temperature was tinting the windows. White cars and suvs were just as hot as black ones.
In Canada the school buses have yellow roofs the newer ones might have white roofs though and some of them have an emergency flashing light on the roof
Watching this while sitting in a school bus I converted to an RV. My desk is mounted over top the steering wheel LOL. Yes I love the white roof, it gets hot when the sun is beating down. Mine has AC though.
here in the UK, school busses are normal busses that have the a sticker on the front and/or back of the bus that let's people know that it's a school bus.
half of the video : facts about US School buses and how their been recicled second half: lets put some unique but random ways of transportation on this list.
Graduated HS way back in 2004. AC on a (standard) school bus was not an option. How to keep "cool": You put that window down and pray the Texas sun isn't beating down on your side of the bus. Either way, all passengers were still going to sweat like a w**** in church.
This video started out mundane and practical, and just got weirder and weirder... I'm all for education, but those kids walking in chest-deep water were really hardcore 😖 And what was the deal with the bus with wheels on top? And one that floats above tracks at 280 mph? Thanks for a really interesting video! Good job!
TL DW: Reflects light/heat so bus stays cooler in summer, also saving money on gas if it has AC. Can be identified by aerial assistance faster White paint is cheaper
Has ANYBODY EVER ridden a cheese bus WITH air conditioning though? 🤔🤣 The only time we got air on a bus was when we rode the coach bus for school trips-- coach buses are the ones with AC, cloth seats, tvs, and bathrooms.
I understand that Pikachu is in an anime, but Pikachu is definitely a video game character. that's like calling Sonic a cartoon character just because he was in a cartoon.
A white top is easier to see in case of an accident? What if the bus went off the road into the snow . Would a helicopter really see a white roof among the snow or a bright yellow roof?
Ah yes because we don’t need to know about how almost all of the bus is yellow but we need to know why the roof, the part we can’t even see, is white. Thank you for this I have been enlightened
I remember there in Philippines there are huge bus’s there like one bus on top without wheel and one bus at the ground there’s stairs to go to the second one
From an energy saving standpoint and a human comfort standpoint, ideally, all vehicles, houses & commercial buildings should have roof colors of white in the summer time and black in the winter.
When your teacher says, now we should learn something everyday even on the weekends, can I get any examples, well I learned school buses have white roofing!
Hi Bright Side. I see someone stole your video and translate it to local language. Try to Find "Sisi Terang" channel. That is the meaning of "Bright Side" in Indonesia.
I have to question the whole "a white roof makes the vehicle more visible" thing. The yellow color used on busses was specifically chosen for its high visibility. According to numerous studies and tests, red and yellow are the most eye-catching, attention-grabbing colors. It is not a coincidence that these two colors are used to indicate danger or a need for caution, or when noticeability is desired; they are the colors that are most likely to catch people's attention. If white were even marginally "more visible" than yellow, they would not hesitate to paint every school bus all white. Firetrucks and ambulances, too. Painting all government vehicles primer white would save them time and money. The savings alone would be reason enough. The fact that they still choose to use yellow and red for high visibility tells you everything you need to know.
Hey guys! If you had your own school bus, what color would it be?

It has White roof

The white roof does not work. I’m on one everyday and when it’s hot outside it’s hotter on the bus
jody stewart yeah buts that’s actually because of the windows.
I can confirm that... working at a car lot when I was younger the only thing that made a difference on the interior temperature was tinting the windows. White cars and suvs were just as hot as black ones.
It is slightly cooler, you just don't notice a big difference.
This video reminded me that tomorrow is Monday. Thx :')
me as an Australian and have never in my life seen a yellow bus that looks like that. Search up Australian school buses and see the difference

Fun fact: you can edit your comment without typing "edit:"

Nobody : why
Bright side : since u said why , here is the answer for ya
It's so jeepers creepers can find the kids to eat 💀
In Canada the school buses have yellow roofs the newer ones might have white roofs though and some of them have an emergency flashing light on the roof
Who else sees these white painted roofs on buses a lot
Me
Me
Unless you're on the second floor of a building, you can't see the roof of a bus.
Never saw one
Not really, excluding charter and private school buses.
I know why they have a white roof. Kids were drawing on the roof so they had to use some whiteout
How many subs can I get with one video
XD
Yup Phillipines use boats. Sometimes it is used when there's a very high flood.btw I'm a Filipino
Thanks for giving another great video bright side
Watching this while sitting in a school bus I converted to an RV. My desk is mounted over top the steering wheel LOL. Yes I love the white roof, it gets hot when the sun is beating down. Mine has AC though.
You LOVE school buses. I don’t blame you. Buses are beautiful vehicles
To keep busses cooler inside.
8 minutes of life saved.
i live in australia so this doesn't even relate to me but its facts soooo
When I was in Florida, all I saw was the white roofs.....now I know why...thanks for sharing
To reflect more light and absorb fewer heat. To sum up; to keep it cool inside.
I LIVE IN NEW JERSEY NEAR THOSE AIRPORTS! It takes around 22 minutes to get to EWR, and an hr to get to JFK.
I sometimes see like white buses they look like a fusion between a van and bus
It's time to think why polar vehicles are also white😂
🤔
May be that is to hide it from direct view

-Ever ridden on a school bus?
I'll bet you did!
Well, you're gonna lose that bet, ma' friend
I dont have that in my city :(
They only started painting the roofs white in the mid 1990's. Before that, they were the same color as the rest of the bus!
My school bus has an orange/yellow roof......... MAGIC

Every school bus ive ever seen has a yellow roof though.

Omg, the Howard county busses recently had all their busses roofs painted white!
Interesting, but in my country, riding school bus = riding roller coaster, if you know what I mean.
So the roof is their BRIGHT SIDE?
I never knew school busses have white roofs
Y’all schools broke we had that Ac on every bus
Graduated HS way back in 2004. AC on a (standard) school bus was not an option.
How to keep "cool":
You put that window down and pray the Texas sun isn't beating down on your side of the bus. Either way, all passengers were still going to sweat like a w**** in church.
Farmkid here hour and a half ride home in 110 and no air I'm happy I'm grown now lol
In our school the top is yellow, but we have AC in it! Plus, we live in a small town so no one gets too warm
We are notification squad for bright side and that why we have light
This was way more amusing than it should’ve been😂
In Greece we don't have School Busses

Anyone beside me think US buses are the same color as circus peanuts candy? Maybe the buses are somewhat darker.

My color is blue ski....o yes this color ...have a nice day ...✌✌🏿🎶❤
Oooh, we took a ride on a Monster Bus once, it was wild!
Yeah the monster truck bus looks so cool and would take a ride

In India it is yellow and rickshaws are not used now
No school ever mentioned hang gliding to school. (I think)
3:19 I go to school in this type of bus & my bhayyaji( one who drives the bus) calls it dibba.
I understand that Pikachu is in an anime, but Pikachu is definitely a video game character. that's like calling Sonic a cartoon character just because he was in a cartoon.
To be fair I never checked a school bus roof
Where I live, there’s basically no school busses with white roofs.
When I go to America, all the school busses I see have white roofs
school busses roof have white because the roof of the school bus is white!!
🔥Bright Side, You Rock! 🔥
Did you just call bright side a rock?

School buses are allowed to have yellow tops in Kentucky...
I remember there in Philippines there are huge bus’s there like one bus on top without wheel and one bus at the ground there’s stairs to go to the second one
School buses convey students of various ages and educational levels from one point to another.

School buses in the US are so obvious to spot, in the UK it's literally a standard minivan with the school logo
At my school sometimes my buses have yellow hoods but I have a wight hood for my bus
Why space is black
Why the top of bus is white
Me: ok buddy
It would be blue to amaze the children and keep it coold P.S can you please heart this
You spelled cold wrong just one less o
Mine has a purple roof it's one to go to a acedamy named panther academy and it comes to our school to pick up kids.
