Child safety is the number one priority for bus drivers and anyone who transports a child on a daily basis. Bus drivers have an especially difficult job in that they are responsible for the well-being of numerous children at a time. It is paramount that school bus drivers always drive with caution and follow all traffic laws to avoid jeopardizing the safety of the children they transport on a daily basis.
