What happens to a bus driver when they get a ticket while driving their own car?

r/

This may be a stupid but what happens to a school bus driver when they get a ticket. I got sideswiped by a lady who claimed to be a bus driver and she got a ticket for unsafe lane change so i was wondering if she would get some sort of consequence for that.

    When a bus driver receives a traffic ticket while off-duty, the situation is reviewed by Transport for NSW to assess the driver’s fitness and propriety, potentially leading to action against their Bus Driver Authority (BDA). This action might involve suspension or cancellation of the BDA, with the driver being notified accordingly. Accredited bus operators are responsible for ensuring that only drivers with a valid and active BDA operate their vehicles.

    Those points will also go against their CDL license which is more strict than a regular operator license. If they are smart, they will do an online class to remove those points

    They get points on their license at a higher rate than normal people.
