Why ridiculous? My grandson went to Manchester Grammar School. He had to be in school for 8.30 and he lived in Warrington, 20 miles away, so he had to leave home at 7 a.m. to get the school bus which went all over the area, picking up, on the way. He did that for 6 years and it was no big deal, there were boys travelling from much further away. The one thing he daren't do was miss that bus and be late for school.
