Yep, some school routes and delivery routes are longer and more rural, but MOST are shorter and more of an "in town stop and go" affair.

Obviously, there's still a need for some standard ICE vehicles, although a school bus probably has more than enough space and grunt to haul around a BIG battery that would allow for a pretty considerable range.
