Oh, CHRIST. There was an unspeakably horrible cautionary movie that my class was shown in third grade (reel-to-reel movie spools, not video in those days), titled And Then It Happened. It traumatized me so much that I can't even hear that phrase without shuddering. It was about two catastrophic school bus rides that ended in horrible crashes where everyone died, and were ENTIRELY caused by the brattiness of the kids riding the bus and the incompetence of the driver. The worst part for me was when a kid was dared to swallow some pills and was poisoned in agony. Fortunately, an ambulance came by and rescued him, so he was ironically the only one who survived.
Horrible, horrible movie. I've never heard of anyone else who was subjected to it.
