Remember school bus safetyDate Posted: 2004-03-04 All of the available science and data indicate that today's school buses are the safest vehicles on the highway and over the years have provided excellent levels of crash protection for children. School buses represent the safest way for children to travel to and from school and school-related activities. This outstanding safety record of school buses is due to several factors, including the unique U.S. Federal and Japanese safety standards that school buses must meet, the extensive and specialized training required of school bus drivers, the recognizable color of school buses, and the ability of school bus drivers to utilize school bus lighting and signage to control traffic when children are getting on or off the school bus, while on base. Additionally, school bus security aids are trained to provide direction to children when crossing the road in front of the school bus.
