Yellow school buses are a great American success story, with a safety record that is unequalled in the transportation industry.
School bus drivers are an integral part of the safe transportation of school children.
The largest and safest transportation system in the United States is public school buses. Yet crashes involving school buses always make them news. Fortunately, almost all school bus crashes are minor, and if there are injuries, typically it's to the occupants of the other vehicles.
National statistics have shown that school bus transportation is the safest way in transporting your child. Fatal crashes involving school bus occupants are extremely rare events, even though school buses serve daily in every community - a remarkable 8.8 billion students to and from school annually. Every school day, some 450,000 yellow school buses transport more than 24 million children to and from school and school related activities. Another way to give perspective to the huge magnitude of pupil transportation is equivalent to the populations of Florida, Massachusetts and Oregon. Students ride on a school bus every day - almost always without a serious incident.
Our goal here at the Humboldt Unified School District is to help keep our Department of Transportation Services at the highest of school bus transportation.
