BRADENTON, Fla. (970 WFLA) - A Bradenton bus driver might be losing her job for failing a urine test, which showed that she had smoked marijuana.
And she's blaming the students.
Rosemary Pevy says that any marijuana in her system could only have come from students who were smoking at the bus stop or on her bus.
According to Pevy, there were 7-9 students who enjoyed flaunting the fact that they smoked pot, saying that she couldn't prove anything.
The Manatee School Board is discussing her dismissal, and they don't seem to be buying her story.
An attorney for the school board says that Pevy never mentioned any drug use by the students until she came under fire in the most recent allegations.
A doctor on the case calls Pevy's story "ridiculous."
Pevy has not been driving for the school district since the failed drug test, which resulted from her involvement in a traffic accident.
Pevy says that she is not going to fight for her job, because she can't afford to hire a lawyer.
