As a school bus driver, you want to bring the pupils to school, on time in the morning. In the evening you should also bring them safely home. Here are some tips on how to improv performance on icy roads.
In wintertime the slippery roads makes that harder for sure. To start from the roadside can be troublesome with spinning wheels. Before that you have had to be able to stop on the ice too. You can get stock with the bus and not able to reach the school on time. In worst case you would have to get out of the bus to try to get something manually under the tires to get a grip.
That is nothing to deal with when the bus is full of curious pupils. For many years we have been putting together content to help on this. From comparing ways of increasing traction to publishing checklists on how to improve performance on the slippery roads.
