Now that the Janesville (Wis.) School District is set to get its first-ever school buses with three-point seat belts in time for the 2009-2010 school year, the Janesville Gazette reports that the school board is trying to hammer out new rules about seat belt use including the number students by grade level who can be assigned to one seat, and when it is safe for the driver to beginning driving.
The current proposed rules in Janesville include: “The driver will not move the bus until all students are seated, buckled and have visually indicated to the driver they are buckled.”
Is your district or fleet receiving buses with seat belts for the first time this coming year? What safety issues and rules-of-use are you grappling with? Have you found successful answers?

We want this to be an open forum for the hundreds of thousands of people that help get students to school safely every day. We want to hear what you think, what's going on at your facility and what solutions you've found. But, please, keep it civil. Just like on the bus, we'll have no tolerance for attacks or anything defamatory. We won't write you up, but we'll delete the comments right away. So don't bother. But if you have something to share, this is your place.
Thanks,
