So I guess we could compromise and maintain the status quo, maybe end daylight savings time a little bit earlier. But as it stands, with a 6:45AM pickup time, your child is going to have to wait for the bus in the dark at least part of the year December through January irrespective of whether we stop changing the clocks. Ending daylight savings time might reduce the absolute number of days your child will be waiting in the dark, but it doesn't completely solve your issue. You might want to consider alternative solutions like petitioning for later school start times or looking to create a bus stop with protective bollards.
