I would simply approach the bus driver and say "I understand you're having some problems with my son, can I help?"....then just sit and listen and pay close attention. Listen for any hint of frustration, then offer ways of how to deal with your son more productively. The driver may need to be educated on how to deal with him. If he/she knows they can come to you with "complaints" it may help to take the heat off your son.

This is the best advice I've seen so far. It's always best to avoid triangulation if possible. Unconfrontational face to face will likely solve the problem.

Maybe. Bus drivers are sometimes wonderful retired folks who are just looking for something to do....other times they are just not cut out to do much at all...and they fell into driving a bus. 30 seconds into any conversation will tell you which it is......Since this bus driver has already been reassigned---away from special needs kids.....my guess is that he simply may be ill-equipped for the job.
