NYC School Bus Drivers Strike

Up to 152,000 children stranded

|

For the first time in 34 years, New York City bus drivers went on strike, stranding up to 152,000 students in the nation's largest public school system on sleet-soaked Wednesday morning.

"Take a Hike, Kid!" reads the front page of Wednesday's New York Post, beside a picture of a glum young student with his
thumb raised, hitch-hiker style.
