Bus routes are based upon the number of passengers assigned to the bus (regardless of whether or not the student actually rides the bus). More than 54 students would not be assigned to a particular bus. If the bus is overcrowded, it is most likely due to students taking a bus route other than the one assigned. Additionally, most juniors and seniors drive or get a ride to PHS and don’t take up the seats that they were assigned. Any liability would be with the board of education not the township.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>anon-00q5</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon, Sep 19 2022, 6:25 pm EDT<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Illegal Cranbuury busing</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Based on the subject line, I thought maybe Cranbury was targeted to become the next Martha's Vineyard.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>anon-8p57</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu, Sep 15 2022, 8:26 pm EDT<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Illegal Cranbuury busing</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Back in the 70’s we rode to school in the back of a pickup truck.
