Create a Safety Umbrella Over The School Bus Danger Zone

Attack the Illegal Passing Epidemic

With the Safe Fleet Illegal Passing Suite

The Illegal Passing Suite holds a pivotal role within the completely equipped school bus and represents the industry’s most comprehensive and effective efforts to-date in reducing risk to students outside the bus.

It is the only solution that creates a safety umbrella over the school bus danger zone by improving bus visibility, driver adherence to posted laws, and keeping students out of harm’s way.

PROACTIVE.

PREVENTATIVE.

COMPREHENSIVE.

The Suite is Comprised of 3 Components:

HEIGHTENED BUS AND STUDENT VISIBILITY

Give drivers every opportunity to see the bus, protect students and obey the laws.

High-Visibility-Stop-Arm-School-Bus-Safe-Fleet

Illuminated Stop Arm

Let drivers know the bus is stopped or stopping. Using a highly reflective decal and the word “stop” brightly backlit with LEDs, the arm is readable at 100 yards and visible at over 250 yards for increased student safety.

school-bus-crossing-arm

Crossing Arm

Ensure the bus driver maintains constant line of sight with students at all times for increased safety. When deployed, the crossing arm makes sure students remain 6 feet in front of the bus as they begin to cross the road.

360° Vehicle Monitoring System

Eliminate blind spots and see the full perimeter view around your vehicle with the inView360 HD. Access stitched views from 4, 5 or 6 bird’s eye cameras for comprehensive coverage of your vehicle in relation to every student and object in its vicinity for improved perimeter safety.

Driver Alert

Tell drivers behind the bus they should stop and not pass.

The driver alert device, located on the back door of the bus, flashes up the words ‘Caution – Stopping’ when the bus slows down and the bus’s amber, 8-way lights are activated. The Driver Alert flashes the words “stop do not pass” when the bus’s red lights are activated and the stop arm is deployed.

dual view assist

Dual View (Rear View) Mirror Monitor

Reduce risk behind the bus and give your bus drivers increased visibility where they typically have none. The Dual View Mirror Monitor is a rear-view mirror that features an embedded rear view camera display. The bus driver is presented with a view of the inside length of the bus and a view immediately outside the rear of the bus for increased student safety – all in one rear view mirror.

PROACTIVE WARNING TO STUDENTS WHEN DANGER IS PRESENT

The only safety system on the market that proactively works with students to stay out of danger in the first place and doesn’t solely rely on vehicle operators to keep students from harm.

The Predictive Stop Arm™ (PSA)

This Safe Fleet game changing solution uses radar and predictive analytics technology to scan 3 lanes of traffic, 1,000 feet in both directions to determine if a vehicle will stop in time. If the system deems an illegal pass is probable, the PSA loudly emits an audible message to “Stop, Get Back,” giving students a precious 3-4 seconds to “step back” from danger.

Safe Fleet is the only company to offer a predictive solution to reduce student risk during loading and unloading. Punitive actions take time to effect change. Proactive, predictive measures are immediate and help improve student safety the minute the Predictive Stop Arm is installed.

Catching a stop arm violator results in punitive charges for the driver, but the students remain at risk. I’m less interested in prosecuting the motorist than I am about keeping students safe.”

Derrick Agate, Former Transportation Supervisor, Hopkins Public Schools

I’ve seen the technology work as it is intended, alerting students to not cross the street when it recognizes a car will blow past the stop arm.”

Derrick Agate, Former Transportation Supervisor, Hopkins Public Schools

The Predictive Stop Arm adds an extra measure of safety to the students crossing the street.”

Don Carter, Transportation Manager, St Lucie Public Schools

This technology is the best thing I’ve seen in a long time. This tool will keep a child from being in a position where they are going to get hit.”

Derrick Agate, Former Transportation Supervisor, Hopkins Public Schools

It’s a chance for us to protect the children before they get hurt. All the other devices out there are just trying to catch the driver doing something wrong. With this, we have the opportunity to maybe save someone’s life.”

Robert Downin, Transportation Director, Clarke Pleasant Community SD

IMPORTANT NOTICE: No system can prevent all incidents. Inattentive drivers, weather, erratic student behavior, and other factors can inhibit detection and overall system performance. Drivers must always keep proper lookout.

HELP ENFORCE PROPER DRIVER BEHAVIOR

High-Visibility-Stop-Arm-School-Bus-Safe-Fleet

Stop Arm Cameras

Enforce posted driving laws and create consistent and ongoing school bus awareness education campaigns by capturing stop arm violations as they occur with Safe Fleet Stop Arm Camera Systems. Two high-definition stop arm cameras mounted on the front and rear of the bus above the stop arms, record the driver, the vehicle and the license plate details for subsequent prosecution.

Each of Illegal Passing Suite systems can be installed stand-alone, but an increased level of effectiveness comes from the full suite working together to help drive instances of injury or death in the school bus danger zone down to zero – consistently.
