Driver Tells School Kids to "Go F*** Yourselves," Then Abandons School Bus

Bus driver abandons school bus filled with ki

A Pennsylvania school bus driver was arrested and is now facing a series of charges after she allegedly drove the vehicle in an erratic fashion and flipped off students, while telling them to "Go f**k yourselves," before abandoning them at a gas station.

Lori Ann Mankos, 44, of Walnutport, was reportedly driving 26 middle and high school students home from school when some of the students noticed their driver wasn't taking their usual route home. Students began recording the wild ride on as they traveled home with the "agitated" driver.

“The major thing on the ride that threw everybody off was when there was a right-hand turn and when she took it, she was going far too fast,” one student told WFMZ News. "She ended up being halfway into the opposing lane of traffic."

When students protested the wild driving, Mankos allegedly swore at them, flipping them off. In video taken by students, the driver can be heard asking if they wanted her to just stop the bus and call everyone's parents to come pick them up. When the students agreed, the driver parked at a Sunoco gas station, handed the keys to a gas station attendant, and walked away.

No one was injured during the incident.

Police went to her residence and took her into custody. Mankos was charged with 26 charges of child endangerment, driving under the influence and careless and reckless driving.
