You're right, yabba, it's not enforced so I'm about to stop trying to comply. Never saw why it was necessary anyway but I've tried to stick with the program and it's useless. It doesn't help any that we have antiquated fuel pumps that are normally slow and in cold weather barely DRIP fuel.

(And considering the buses that wouldn't start this morning due to fuel line freezing ... and runs that didn't go out ... a cold weather fuel additive might be a good idea. But hey, what do I know ... )
I am patient with stupidity, but not with those who are proud of it.

As of 3 p.m. my bus was still not started. Didn't go out at all this morning, like about a dozen others. So little equipment for 2 yards it's shameful.
