Geotab School Bus GPS Tracking Safer Routes for Every Student

With the Records to Prove It

Student Transportation

School Bus Routes, Safety, and Maintenance in One Place

Run K-12 buses on data: routes, safe driving, maintenance, and inspections in one place.

District Results

Pre-trip inspections done with photos
Digital pre-trip inspections with photos sit on the same record dispatch sees.
A record of what happened
The record shows exactly what happened, and your district decides how driver data is used.
Bus visibility for parents, if you choose
Add-on options give parents bus visibility alongside the staff dashboard.
Fewer incidents
Drivers ranked by collision risk get coached before the incident.
Lower operating costs
The bus most likely to fail gets the bay first: a planned repair, not a mid-route breakdown.
Higher parent confidence
Exact arrival times replace guesswork on every call.

Stop Records

Every Arrival, Logged
A geofence on every stop logs each bus arrival and departure.
Planned Versus Actual
Detours and early running land on a report, not in a complaint.
Data Protected to Federal Standards
Fleet data lives on FedRAMP Authorized MyGeotab, open only to staff who need it.

Geotab Drive

School Bus Setup

Parents want the bus on time and driven well, and districts want the records. One system delivers both.

Collision Risk, beyond scorecards
Geotab's Collision Risk model finds the riskiest 10% of drivers, the ones behind 1 in 5 collisions.
On-time performance
Route timing tracked day after day, stop by stop, so a route that is slipping shows as a trend, not an anecdote.
Footage tied to the trip
When a question comes in, dash camera video lines up with the exact trip record.
Answers for parents in seconds
Dispatch pulls exact arrival and departure times for any bus and stop.
Set up and supported by one U.S.-based team
One team from install through every policy change.

Questions

Is this suitable for K-12 and transit?

Yes. Student and passenger transport run on one live map, with every stop logged and every driver ranked by risk.

Can we monitor driver safety?

Yes. Drivers are ranked by collision risk, so coaching reaches the riskiest first, backed by alerts and AI cameras.

How do public agencies buy it?

Through cooperative contracts Sourcewell 102924-GEO or NASPO ValuePoint MA3695, already competitively solicited.

Can parents track the bus themselves?

Yes, if your district chooses. Add-on options give parents bus visibility alongside the staff dashboard.

How is driver data used?

Your district decides how it is used, and the record protects drivers by showing exactly what happened.

How long is the data kept?

As long as your district's records schedule requires; administrators set the retention.

“We know exactly where our shuttles and buses are on your interactive, second-to-second maps. Not sure how we ever operated without it.”
