On the ride home she asked what happened
I told her
And she said, Why would you listen to them if you knew they were wrong?

She pulls over. I can SEE my house.

She's not allowed to let me cross a street
I suggest she radio the office to call my mom and she can walk to the intersection and get me. We're right there! Nope
She can only let kids off at approved stops

We pass within 20ft of my yard. Twice. But she can only drive her assigned route
