Let's be clear. I counted about 100 buses in the previous wire image (I wish someone would post it here), plus an extra 18, (thank you fellow freepers), here in this BBC video.

If each bus holds 40 people? we're talking about the ability to move 4,720 per trip times 3 trips a day for 3 days (friday, saturday, and sunday before the storm), we're talking about 42,480 that where not moved because these buses where not used before the storm, when the roads actually existed, the weather was fine, fresh water and food where plentiful, and a Cat5 was still in the gulf.

A kid was interviewed on Fox last night who had commandeered a school bus from the lot. He put 70 people in his bus and took them to Houston. Had to fill up two-three times, and the people on the bus chipped in for the gas.

On another thread, a young boy stole a school bus and took 100 people to the Astrodome. 100 people on a seven hour trip on a school bus.

They also said he may be in a lot of trouble. Unbelievable. I consider him a real hero.

The New Orleans Rapid Transit Authority (RTA) also had an additional 426 city buses, in addition to the school buses. Add that to your total.
