New Safety Features on Our School Buses

Our newest school buses are now equipped with First Light Safety Products to enhance student safety during pickup and drop-off times, especially in low-light conditions.

Key features include:

  • Illuminated School Bus Sign: The sign at the top of the bus is brightly lit, making the bus more visible to drivers in the early morning or evening hours.

  • Illuminated Stop Paddle: The stop sign arm on the side of the bus now lights up, providing an additional layer of visibility and safety when students are boarding or exiting.

These improvements help ensure that our buses are easily seen by motorists, even in the dark, increasing safety for students and drivers alike.
