Flatsville, By law, bus drivers can only have 10 hours of "seat time" per day. They can be on the clock for 16 hours, but some companies cut that back.

There are a few drivers at Orange County Transit who make $60,000 per year. They do it by working 7 days a week (voluntary call backs they are called), and by bidding for runs that have some overtime.

Transit companies are all trying to go to two tier systems where new hires get less benefits and pay than existing employees. I think the news coverage of the MTD strike has been a crock for the most part.
