School Bus Stop-Arm Safety Program
Every day, millions of students rely on school buses for safe transport to and from school. Yet, the illegal passing of stopped school buses poses a significant threat to their safety. In 2023 alone, an estimated 43 million drivers bypassed school bus stop arms, placing countless children at risk during their most vulnerable moments - boarding and de-boarding. Despite the danger, there simply aren't enough police resources to monitor every school bus stop. This is where our technology steps in.
