Q: Can dolls be put inside and if yes what size doll fits?
submitted by Steph - 11 months ago
A: Yes, this bus is massive. My kids put calico critters toys and duplo people in the seats. The roof opens so they also put medium sized stuffed toys and have their heads pop out of the roof.
submitted byOxydozyga - 9 months agoA: Hi Steph. The Driven line does not make a line of dolls to fit inside the vehicles and we have not tested to see if dolls will fit inside. The Battat Team

Q: What is the speed this vehicle reaches?
submitted by Hmmm - 1 year ago
A: I calculated the wheel rpm to be about 180 and it having a 3 inch tire translates to about 1.6 mph
submitted byLandon bus lover - 1 year agoA: Hi Hmmm. The Driven RC Vehicles are not speed cars. If the School Bus has fully charged Alkaline batteries and goes in a straight line; the speed it can drive is approximately 3 miles/hour or 4.5 km/hour. Thank you. The Battat Team

Doesn’t work. Worked for about a day now doesn’t work at all. Replaced both batteries multiple times controller doesn’t even light up. A real big bummer as he got this as a gift and now can’t even play with it. Pretty big let down to a 2 year old. Reading other reviews I’m sure they will take zero responsibility.

I can’t figure out how to get it to drive and turn it just keeps making starting and honking sounds
1 reply from Team Battat team - 14 days ago
Hi Amim - Thanks for your comments. On the instruction sheet that was included with your Driven Remote Control School Bus, you'll see that there is a switch on the bottom of the bus that must be set to "ON" in order for all of the features of the bus to work. There are other detailed instructions on the bus's functionality on this sheet. If you do not have the sheet, please go to the Driven website, search for the School Bus, and download the instruction sheet from the link.

Hello we are trying to set up my sons new remote controlled bus and it is not working. It has an ongoing beep noise that won’t turn off and the remote controlled bus doesn’t work.
1 reply from Team Battat team - 2 months ago
Hi Katie K - Thank you for sharing your experience with the Driven Remote Control School Bus. We suggest that you take out all of the batteries and start from the beginning. Load in the batteries and ensure that the switch on both the bus and the remote are at the "on" position. We hope these suggestions are helpful!
Very nice!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this a few weeks ago and the design and look of it is very nice! This is definitely one of the best R/C vehicles so far that a kid will definitely deserve for Christmas or for a kid's birthday. The roof can slide for little guys to put in there. The emergency door also opens up! It is okay that there is a little stain on the hood and it is also okay that the box was damaged. For this review, I give this 4 stars instead of 5. You can operate the vehicle up to 100 feet away from the remote control. Also, I love how you can open the service door and stop sign. Driven by Battat, I 100% extremely love all of your toys!!! I LOVE YOU FOR MAKING THIS TOY!!!!!

The horn works but that’s about it. My kids were really excited about this. It never would move, the door opened once and then stopped working. It’s a cool concept and I think they would have really enjoyed it if it worked.

I Bought this product a month adn a half ago and its THE BEST school bus i have ever owned i dont have some changes that could be made though. It drives great, looks great, and is the best product on the website 1. Make the seats so all the way to the wall 2. Make the seats gray 3. Make add more seats 4. You could make another model that has a handicap door and lift 5 Make the bus faster 6. Make the bus so you can put little figures in it 7. Maybe make the cellings of the bus higher like 1 inch higher 8. Maybe put little (not working) plastic AC unit inside on the celling 9. Put working signals in the back and the front (turn signals) 10. Tell your design team i love their work and they are great, but they could add these changes in the near furture thanks, Adam.
Great for all ages

Gave to my 2 year old for Christmas and he loves it. He's able to run the controls on his own and added bonus (for him) that it has a horn and sounds like a bus engine running. The doors can also be opened and closed with the remote. Many hours of play to be had thanks to driven's high quality toys (it's been 5 months and nothing has been broken yet with 3 boys under 8 in the house!).
