ACCIDENT PROCEDURES (color/7 mins./2003) 2-0597
Even when professional school bus drivers use their very best defensive driving skills and safety practices, an incident, through no fault of their own, can still happen. It's not something most drivers like to even think about, but preparing drivers for these situations is vital. When a crash occurs, drivers must get a grip on their emotions-fast-because there is much they must do to protect young passengers, other motorists, themselves, and also to prevent further damage and possible liability. By memorizing the procedure demonstrated in this training program, the driver can swing into action immediately, despite the rush of emotions.

Evacuating a special ed bus causes stress to students and the bus driver. During the course of the video we examine this issue and we emphasize that if the driver concentrates on the task of evacuating the bus and not on the negative consequences of the evacuation, the chance for a successful evacuation is dramatically increased.

Highlights:

• Knowing when to evacuate a special ed bus.

CONFIDENTIAL RECORDS (color/15 mins.)  1-0151
This subject of the importance of drivers knowing more about the use, and misuses, of student information also arises when we are talking about emergencies on the school bus, or which impact the bus ride.  For example, what does the driver do if there is an accident, and he or she doesn't know who to contact? What is a school transporter's responsibility if a sheriff wants the names and addresses of students who ride a particular bus? Shouldn't drivers be made aware of students with violent tendencies?

This Guide explains the legal and practical issues concerning confidential student information contained in education records.  With this information in hand, pupil transportation officials can work more closely with school administrators and special educators to ensure that their drivers have -- and use correctly -- the information needed to support safe, orderly, and efficient transportation for all students.
