It’s National School Bus Safety Week! This year’s event runs from October 21-25 so this week is the perfect time to remind drivers about slowing down, staying alert, and following best practices when they encounter a school bus on the road. Statistics show that school buses are one of the safest modes of transportation for students, but accidents can still happen – especially when drivers fail to follow their state’s school bus laws. More than 25 million children ride school buses on a daily basis, so it’s essential that drivers do their part to keep kids safe while sharing the road.
