PVSD is proud to announce the launch of a new School Bus Safety Program in partnership with the Perkiomen Valley School District Police Department and BusPatrol, a leading stop-arm enforcement company. Approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, the program is designed to reduce dangerous motorist behavior around school buses and make travel to and from school safer for all student riders.
PVSD district buses are equipped with photo enforcement technology that automatically detects vehicles that illegally pass stopped school buses when red lights are flashing and stop arms are extended. These violations are captured on video and reviewed by local law enforcement before any citation is issued. A stop-arm violation carries a fine.
More information about the program can be obtained here.
