I think rural areas are where most school busses are used…

Right, it's obviously only right in certain circumstances. If there's only a handful of stops and the stops are all 5-10-20 miles apart, and like you said, the bus driver would then have to foot the bill for the charge, that wouldn't make any sense.

But if it's a suburban school where the bus route is only a few miles with 30 stops and the bus gets dropped off at the bus-yard/school/central location each night, then that might be perfect.
