What NHTSA recorded

An item worn by a child, such as a long drawstring, sash, or backpack/bookbag accessory, can become caught in the area between the handrail and the floor.

Possible consequence

If an item worn by a child were to catch on this area, and the driver were to close the door and put the vehicle in motion, this can result in serious injury or death.

Remedy

Us bus has gone out of business. The correction was to turn the handle upside down and install a redesigned (white) spacer between the floor and the handrail.
