National School Bus Safety Week

Today ends National School Bus Safety Week.  Here in Colorado, we have numerous laws to protect children who ride school buses.  In addition, school bus drivers are rigorously trained on safety standards.  Our library collection includes several helpful resources on school bus safety, including

• Colorado Passenger Vehicle & School Bus Driver’s Manual
• Colorado School Bus Driver Trainer’s Manual
• First Aid Guide for School Bus Drivers and Bus Assistants
• The Issue of Lap Belts in School Buses
• School Bus Safety is for Everyone

For historical information we also have a number of documents on this topic from the 1970s and ’80s, which provide an interesting comparison. Search our library’s web catalog using search terms “school bus” or “school transportation” to find these resources.
