Are we forgetting the importance of drug and alchohl testing for our bus drivers? 

Especially our school bus drivers? 

In this weeks episode of Clearing The Haze we discuss a recent report by the US News  entitled " Are States Protecting Students From Impaired School Bus Drivers? In recent months we have seen numerous reports of school buses and buses involved in fatal accidents with the end result determine that the driver was impaired at the time with Alcohol and or drugs. In most cases this could have been preventable but no one was aware of the condition or issues the driver was dealing with that lead up to these tragic events.

In this episode we give you some tips and thoughts in how we can better serve our clients who have these drivers and help give them and our communities the piece of mind we need knowing that hundreds of children each day rely on these drivers to get them to where they are going safely.

We also talked about the upcoming NDASA National Conference taking place in Jacksonville Florida and hope to see you there!
