Bus driver Martha Thompson, 56, of Almond, N.Y. pleaded guilty Nov. 2, 2009, to 37 counts of child endangerment and driving while intoxicated on May 8, 2009, while students screamed and begged her to stop. On Jan. 4, the Allegany County Court sentenced her to six months of electronic home monitoring, five years of probation, 12 weekends in jail and mandatory alcohol counseling. She was also fined $1,000.
A video captured the frightening ride, during which several students beg Thompson to pull over. The "Early Show" reports that her blood alcohol level was .15, almost twice the New York state legal limit of .08 percent.
HIRING: If you like to sit around during the day, shotgun beers and then turn a serene ride home from school into an X-Box game, then apply here! The highlights will be a fun romp through the neighbor's yards (literally!) while the chillren's scream in delight (they beg you to stop, but we all know "Please pull over I don't want to die!!" REALLY means "Faster, bitch!") and the worst that can happen is that you spend a few weekends in jail--hey, it is a grown up Breakfast Club!
