What does yelling backdoor mean?


What does yelling backdoor mean? Riders yell out “back door” when they forget to pull the stop cord and realize they are at their stop. If you pull the cord (lanyard) it won't sound, cause the coach is stopped and the front door open. “Back door please” lets the operator know you wish to exit the rear door.


Why do school buses have a button in the back?
