Why are American school buses single-decker?
American school transport standardized on body-on-chassis Type C single-deckers in the early 20th century — Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards require school-bus-specific construction (rollover protection, seat compartmentalization, emergency exits) that body-on-chassis architecture provides. Yellow paint became mandated by 1939 NCSTRP standard.
