* ''Series/{{Numb3rs}}'': One episode centers around a group of con men taking over a tour bus and taking the passengers hostage for ransom, threatening to execute them if the ransom isn't paid by a specified time, including shooting one hostage to prove they're serious. Eventually the FBI realizes the whole thing is all based in illusion -- the "hostage" was actually a secret co-conspirator and his supposed shooting was staged -- and they're able to free the hostages unharmed.

* ''VideoGame/DeBlob'': In the final level of the second game, [[spoiler:Comrade Black traps a group of Graydian scientists in an orbital habitat, rigs the habitat to explode, and forces you into a SadisticChoice: either charge ahead to try to beat the clock on his plans to hypnotize all of Raydia, or waste precious time saving a handful of civilians while the rest of the planet falls under Comrade Black's control. If you choose the former, you'll be treated to a lovely cutscene of the habitat exploding with everyone inside, choose the latter and Comrade Black will taunt you about your failure to save everyone else on the planet. To add insult to injury, he does this ''three times''.]]

* ''Series/MonarchLegacyOfMonsters'': In Cate Randa's flashback to [[Film/Godzilla2014 G-Day]] in the [[Recap/MonarchLegacyOfMonstersS1E1Aftermath first episode]], a schoolbus carrying her and terrified schoolkid evacuees gets caught precariously on a ledge on the Golden Gate Bridge when the military's assault provoking Godzilla causes the latter to begin damaging the bridge. Cate begins evacuating the schoolkids off the bus through the rear emergency door, but she only manages to get several off before a flying piece of debris knocks the bus loose and sends it plummeting into the bay with most of the children still onboard.

Not to be confused with "Bus Full Of Nuns", the old name for ArsonMurderAndJaywalking. Buses full of nuns ''are'' popular for this trope, though. Also has nothing to do with PassingJudgment.

PassingJudgment, which is when a character does something embarrassing in public and gets stared at by appalled passengers of a vehicle.

* ''Film/TrickRTreat'': In "Halloween School Bus Massacre", a group of trick-or-treaters travels to a local flooded quarry where Macy recalls the urban legend of the "Halloween School Bus Massacre," which claimed the lives of eight children with disabilities in a school bus on Halloween. The driver, who had been paid by their worn-out parents to dispose of them, drove them to that place to kill them. One of them broke free and attempted to escape. But instead wound up sending the bus over the quarry edge with the children shackled inside. The children all perished and the driver was never heard from again.

* In the ''Anime/PokemonMewtwoReturns'' special, Mewtwo saves a bus full of travelers from falling off Mt. Quena during a storm. He states he was simply ensuring no meddling rescue parties would prod into his and his clones' lives had there been an accident.

-->'''Carey:''' Aw, guys, I'm sorry, but the phone's been ringing all night. Apparently a lot of people need your help. ''(whips out the list)'' Let's see, there's a bus on a broken suspension bridge, and... Ooh, I think I'd start with the giant spider that's climbing city hall.
