Queensland takes the lead in student safety on buses

Queensland's Department of Transport and Main Roads is addressing child safety concerns on buses. Following tragic incidents where young children were left unattended in vehicles, the department issued guidance to transport operators.

RollCall's Bus Guardian module aligns with the department's safety requirements. The Queensland authority emphasized essential practices including:

  • Maintaining current records
  • Conducting roll checks and head counts
  • Performing physical vehicle inspections

While operators already have safety protocols in place, the department encourages comprehensive reviews of training, policies, and procedures to prevent children being accidentally left in vehicles.

RollCall positions Bus Guardian as a technological solution supporting these safety mandates, offering the module to both existing and new clients as a response to the department's initiative.
