It seems that this particular county is known for its 'problem School bus drivers':
"Duval County's school bus service hired dozens of drivers this year that other Florida school districts would have rejected as safety risks, a Times-Union analysis of personnel records shows.

The analysis found that people with bad driving records, suspended driver's licenses and unsettling arrest histories were able to get jobs transporting children mostly because Duval County set low hiring standards. A few others, the ones who had invalid licenses, were hired because school and bus company employees didn't enforce standards that are spelled out in state law.
