Why Take the Bus?
It’s Safe — According to statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, students are about 20 times more likely to arrive safely at school taking the bus compared to being driven by a parent. Additionally, each of the buses in Parker’s new fleet is equipped with the latest safety features, including well-padded high-back seats and a 3-point lap/shoulder seat belt for each rider, and all drivers undergo comprehensive safety certification training/testing.
Go Green — Riding a bus is a simple but effective method to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve traffic congestion. According to the American School Bus Council, one school bus will typically take 36 cars off the road. Plus Parker’s new fleet of buses not only meet but also exceed new bus emission regulations that took effect in 2010.
Driver Certification
In addition to being courteous and professional, all of Parker’s drivers are also fully qualified and licensed. School bus drivers are required by law to receive more training than any other driver in the United States. They receive training in first aid, student management, safedriving practices and drug/alcohol detection.
