Extractions: What is the Mission of the School Bus Safety Program NHTSA's school bus safety program is committed to reducing school bus-related crashes, injuries, and fatalities through both behavioral programs and vehicle regulations. NHTSA works to educate school bus drivers, students, and other motorists about safe behavior that reduces the risk of being involved in a school bus-related crash. NHTSA establishes and enforces Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards which make the school bus strong and enable it to better protect passengers. What's New in the School Bus Safety Program? NHTSA is continuously working on new events, programs and materials. Keep checking this School Bus Safety Web site for the release of new information. We will try to post new material as it becomes available. School Bus Driver In - Service Safety Series (posted 09/10/02) Although school buses provide one of the safest modes of transportation, there are still school bus-related injuries (and unfortunately some fatalities) every year. Some of these are due to crashes with other vehicles; some are due to the school bus striking a pedestrian, bicyclist, or a passenger. The responsibility borne by school bus drivers is considerable. This School Bus Driver In-Service Safety Series addresses issues that should be of concern to school bus drivers in their efforts to safely transport their passengers.

Extractions: POOR MAINTENANCE, INADEQUATE BRAKE INSPECTION CITED IN FATAL TRUCK COLLISION WITH SCHOOL BUS WASHINGTON D.C. - The National Transportation Safety Board today determined that the probable cause of a collision between an 18-wheel truck and a school bus in Arkansas last year was the reduced braking efficiency of the truck's brakes, which had been poorly maintained and inadequately inspected. Three school children died on May 31, 2001, when a truck-tractor semitrailer exited Interstate 540 at State Highway 282 near Mountainburg, Arkansas, failed to stop at the bottom of the ramp, and collided with a school bus. Two other children received serious injuries and four had minor injuries. The drivers of both vehicles sustained minor injuries.

Extractions: NSC Home Online Resources Fact Sheet Index School Bus Safety Rules School Bus Safety Rules For some 22 million students nationwide, the school day begins and ends with a trip on a school bus. Unfortunately, each year many youngsters are injured and several are killed in school bus incidents. School bus related crashes killed 164 persons and injured an estimated 18,000 persons nationwide in 1999, according to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) and General Estimates System (GES). Over the past six years, about 70% of the deaths in fatal school bus related crashes were occupants of vehicles other than the school bus and 20% were pedestrians. About 4% were school bus passengers and 2% were school bus drivers. Of the pedestrians killed in school bus related crashes over this period, approximately 77% were struck by the school bus. Of the people injured in school bus related crashes from 1994 through 1999, about 44% were school bus passengers, 9% were school bus drivers, and another 43% were occupants of other vehicles. Although drivers of all vehicles are required to stop for a school bus when it is stopped to load or discharge passengers, children should not rely on them to do so. The National Safety Council encourages parents to teach their youngsters these rules for getting on and off the school bus:

http://www.schooltrans.com/Safetyguide.htm

Extractions: School buses are one of the safest forms of transportation in the nation - nearly 2,000 times safer than the family car. Accidents are rare because school districts . . . and the school bus contractors who serve them . . . work hard to train drivers to avoid getting into accidents. In addition, the buses themselves are designed to withstand all but the most serious crashes without death or serious injury. With continued training to help children learn how to get on and off the bus safely - during National School Bus Safety Week each fall, or at other times during the year - parents and teachers can help prevent the remaining few accidents that now occur. The reality of school bus safety is that more children are hurt outside a bus than inside one. The child who bends over to retrieve a dropped school paper, or who walks too close to the bus while crossing the street, needs to be aware that every yellow school bus is surrounded by a danger zone. In many school districts, children are taught to escape from that zone by taking five giant steps as soon as they leave the bus. If they must cross the street after exiting, they're taught to cross in front of the bus - and to be sure they're able to maintain eye contact with the driver. Perhaps the most difficult thing to teach children, especially young children, is not to go back to pick up items they've dropped near the bus, or left on the bus.
