[[Pam]] becomes the Bus Driver once the bus is repaired. She arrives at the Bus Stop at 10:10am and will leave at 5:00pm every day, and tickets are available to purchase for {{Price|500}} during this time. Purchasing a ticket at the machine triggers the bus to take [[the Player]] to [[The Desert|the Calico Desert]]. Tickets include the return trip from the Desert to the Bus Stop.

It is possible to get the bus earlier than 10am by waiting for Pam outside her [[trailer]] at 8.30am and standing in her way. Once she walks through the Player, she will walk significantly faster than usual and reach the bus stop at 9:30am, and a ticket can be purchased as soon as she arrives.

If Pam is unavailable for the day, she leaves a sign in front of the bus telling the player why she is out and that they can drive the bus themself. This allows the player to drive to the Calico Desert on Spring 25, when Pam usually has an appointment at [[Harvey's Clinic]], or when she is on vacation at the [[Ginger Island#Island South|Ginger Island Resort]]. The player still has to pay {{Price|500}} to use the bus.
