DESIGNED WITH DRIVERS IN MIND

Every successful trip begins and ends with the driver. That’s why we empower them with tools that elevate their comfort, efficiency and situational awareness in a meaningful and non-intrusive manner.

It’s a philosophy we call DriverFirst™, which is our commitment to do everything we can to provide a working environment that puts drivers in a position to succeed. After all, it’s hard enough to find committed drivers, let alone retain them. So, if we’re able to help by providing a bus that drivers want to drive, then everyone wins. Your district wins by retaining an experienced driver, the driver wins by building a stable and satisfying career and, most importantly, the kids win by boarding a bus each morning driven by someone who loves their job.
