Some parents prefer driving their kids to school than availing the services of a school bus owing to safety concerns. They take complete charge of their kid’s safety. But how feasible is the idea? Given the fact that a major percentage of parents can’t afford to ensure a personal pick-up and drop to their kids, owing to their busy schedules, the need for a trustworthy school bus service arises, a school bus that has been designed with the aim of providing maximum safety measures, thus assuring such parents of a safe ride for their kids to school and back home.

Even the Supreme Court of India has set some directions for school buses. Some major ones are –

‘School Bus’ must be written both at the front and on the back of the bus. In case of a hired bus, ‘On School Duty’ should be written on it. There should be horizontal grills fitted at the windows. Doors should be fitted with reliable locks. There should be a dedicated space for school bags under the seats. Emergency services like first-aid box and fire extinguisher should be available.

How Eicher helps achieve the big safety goal

Eicher’s Skyline range of school buses promises to be all of this and more. These vehicles aren’t only high on safety fitments, but are also stylish in looks.
