Of course, the other side of the coin is that if a bully on the bus can get away with strangling another kid with a seatbelt, he can do it with a belt, or a shoelace, or a backpack strap, or a piece of string.
Perhaps. However, those are items that must leave the bus with the bully, lest someone start asking awkward questions. And, neither of those examples would be as convenient for a bully to use as a seat belt would be.
