Unruly students in Isle of Wight, England, are being forced to ride a pink bus in an effort to subdue their bad behavior, according to a Local 6 News report.
Officials said that the move to put misbehaving children on the pink vehicle was prompted after a number of incidents of children fighting and abusing the drivers.
So far, the move has not been opposed by parents and students are acting better during their trip.
During each journey, the pink bus is delayed by five minutes every time someone acts up.
The bus drivers have said the pupils try to hide and keep away from the windows when they are one the bus so they are not teased.
