Enough to be harmful. Humans get exposed to dangerous things every single day, even if you don't leave the house, it's just in a quantity to not effect you during a human lifespan.

Are you saying school busses in the US are like a fog rolling into town or something? Because I'm having a hard time picturing how kids can have enough exposure to diesel fumes the way you described it works or how petrol fumes aren't an even bigger issue since they are waiting near a car road. Also having regular busses would reduce petrol and diesel fumes they breath in while waiting anyways if it works the way you describe.

Yea, my whole point is that stick a bunch of bus lanes there instead of having a separate 2 times a day bus for children.

How? My country is like high enough on the map to be on the same line as central Canada and we get like a week or two of -25C or more plus some random cold snaps.

Also that's completely beside the point since my whole point was to have normal bus lanes instead of a school bus.

Probably not a good idea for them to suck on the tailpipe but diesel busses are like the most common type of bus and they don't pump the exhaust into the cabin. So unless busses in the US do that or kids like the taste of tailpipe I don't see how that is even happening.

Schools is canceled if it's -20C for 1-6 grade and -25C for higher grades here, I'm assuming that is also a thing in the US. And I have walked to school at -25C before only to walk back because it was closed, I think I was in 3th grade. It's not some deadly arctic weather you make it out to be, just dress properly.

Also all of that is pretty irrelevant since I was saying you should have public transit that people can just use, including kids for getting to school, not that kids have to walk the whole way to school. Not just special busses children use twice a day.

What kind of weird busses do you have in the states? Most busses (And a large amount of cars) here run on diesel and have no such issue.

What issues do adult strangers cause? And what are the other issues? Also legs work pretty good to get to a bus station, I hear kids have those.

Neither do school busses since only kids take those. If like most people took the bus instead of drove that would help immensely even if it was the most polluting bus ever.

Why not just make normal public transit? Like school busses aren't a thing here so I took the regular bus to school like everyone else, it's a lot more versatile too since people can take it to more places.

Morrowind had voice acting for lines like detecting you and greetings when you got close, plus a few lines in story, most notably Dagoth Ur and Vivec.

For the majority of the story there was none while oblivion had like 11 people voice the entire thing and poorly. The voice acting of Oblivion was also accompanied by the way worse writing. I grew up on Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 and later Morrowind and those were only partially voice acted and I definitely liked that as a kid as well, at least more than I did Oblivion.

None. Bad voice acting is worse than none for sure. Like for example Morrowind had a pretty good story and writing but Oblivion's voice acting has been a joke for over a decade now.
