Driving a school bus is a crucial and demanding job with various challenges. Ensuring that you stick to your schedule is essential to ensure that the school children arrive on time for their lessons. As the winter season approaches, unexpected weather changes can make your workday more difficult. Read more here.
Winter Road Conditions:
As fall transitions into winter, weather conditions can quickly shift from above freezing temperatures to below freezing. Moisture in the air and wet roads can freeze rapidly, leading to the formation of black ice on the road surface. This results in slippery roads, making it challenging to come to a stop when approaching a bus stop. Driving a school bus comes with a significant responsibility, and the safety of the students should never be compromised. Unfavorable weather conditions and slippery roads demand high levels of driver judgment. Even in poor road conditions, it is the driver's responsibility to safely transport the children to school.
Improved traction:
There are numerous options available on the market, but one area we specialize in is Onspot's automatic snow chains. Our system reduces risks and enhances traction in winter road conditions. By simply pressing the button on the dashboard, the system activates automatically, slinging the chains under the tires to make contact with the road surface. Instantly improving grip, you minimize the risk of getting stuck or struggling up a steep incline.
