To be fair, even in Europe as soon as you’re out of the “city”, buses start coming fewer and fewer times during the day. Where I live, I used to get 2 buses in the morning, one one hour after the first.

And for school pickup it's just one in the morning and the one bringing you back in the evening where I live

There are school busses in Europe?

Well,in France not really, in the sense that it is busses from private companies, hired by the county

More to the point, in North America, a school bus is very different from a city bus. It's yellow and has the single purpose of stopping only at each student's house and the school, after which it goes and parks somewhere* until it's time to drive everyone home at the end of the day.

It doesn't come back for you and there isn't another one coming until tomorrow.

*or switches to the next age range )which is usually staggered and in different buildings) or comes back to drive kids to field trips during the day
