School Bus Safety

School bus safety is a community concern because parents expect their children to be transported to and from school safely. However, relatively few studies have been devoted to examining the factors contributing to school bus crashes. In this study, a logistic regression model is used to delineate the factors that contribute to school bus collisions from collisions involving other types of buses. As expected, we find significant differences in crash factors arising from differences in exposure and operating characteristics. Surprisingly, we also find that school bus drivers are more likely to commit driving violations or errors than non-school bus drivers.

And Function

How to build a school bus safety regulatory system consistent with China by using internet of vehicle technology was discussed in the concept of intelligent application and design. The system which was based on vehicle intelligent networking technology provided a reliable system to protect the safety supervision of the school bus. The composition and function of two ingredients of the school bus safety regulation system as the 3G bus intelligent vehicular terminal and the high-speed moving objects data acquisition sensor platform were amply introduced.
