▤ Summary

Bus drivers also cannot shorten their required stop times to manage late pickups or dropoffs. • None Consistently late buses can “prohibit free and appropriate education;” a violation of the Individuals With Disabilities Act. Drivers should be trained to manage school bus emergencies, including fire, intruder, medical, and natural disasters. If a bus goes off-route or begins a domino effect of late pickup and drop-off at each stop, school staff and parents should receive immediate alerts. Capturing definitive data not only reveals problems in transportation times, but it can also generate information about ongoing issues (speeding excesses, unauthorized route stops, etc.).
