everyone has already mentioned why parents drive their kids to school: poor cycling and walking infrastructure, unsafe traffic volume and speeds, our continued urges to build auto-centric neighbourhoods etc. as more people drive their kids to school, this increases the risk. roads and parking lots in school areas become jammed with traffic and for children it is especially unsafe to walk in these conditions, causing more people to drive their kids etc.

i would also like to point out the comment that another user made regarding closing community schools and amalgamating them in mega-schools probably doesn't help as you have greater travel distances for most students and much greater traffic in the area as a result.
