How School Bus Safety Is Quietly Becoming a National Crisis

In a year full of national headlines about education—from curriculum standards to funding battles—one crisis has quietly persisted with little media coverage: student safety during school bus pick-up and drop-off.

You won’t see it on the front page, but ask any transportation director: the most dangerous part of a child’s school day isn’t inside the classroom—it’s crossing the street to get to the bus.

🚸 The Facts Are Startling:

- According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), most school bus-related fatalities occur outside the bus, often in low-light conditions.

- Driver inattention is the leading cause of incidents involving students.

- Despite advances in camera systems and signage, visibility remains the most overlooked factor in prevention.

It’s not that we don’t have the tools to solve this problem—we do. The problem is awareness, prioritization, and implementation.

Gardian Angel was designed for exactly this crisis:

- A patented white LED light that illuminates the path students walk to and from the bus

- Visible even in darkness, rain, or snow

- Easy to retrofit on existing buses—**no overhaul, no waiting**

This isn’t just about technology. It’s about acknowledging a crisis and doing something about it.

📢 If you're a parent, school board member, or transportation leader, don't wait for the next headline.
