School Bus

Benefits for Administrators

In addition to our stop-arm enforcement and automated violation reporting, we provide ridership number reports, driver safety analysis, passenger behavior modeling, and live, hands-free two-way communication between you and your drivers.

Accessible via smartphone or computer, you can touch base with your drivers at any time — in the office or on the go — and manage crises as they come.

The Surebus Driver Client app provides an all-in-one software solution allowing existing mobile devices to easily access your live GPS tracking software. Ensure the locations of your drivers — and your student passengers — at all times.

Real-time onboard and exterior surveillance exceeds expectations for school bus fleet management software. Prevent and monitor vandalism and thefts, both inside and out.

With 24/7 customer service, if any of our robust systems suffer a breakdown or outage, we’re here to help get you back on the road right away, with your live GPS tracking solutions intact.

Peace of Mind for Parents

Our live GPS tracking solutions notify you of bus locations in real-time. During inclement weather, this lets you prepare for drop-off and pick-up with efficient visits to stops and minimized worry.

You can rate drivers to reward excellent student treatment and promote opportunities for improvement in others. Communicate with bus dispatchers in real-time, and get expert updates on bus status.

Enable push notifications for school bus arrivals to keep notice of each child’s status with a familiar system that fits right in your pocket.

Expert Camera Options

Most school buses equipped with our all-in-one school bus fleet management software camera package carry four to seven internal cameras, plus a stop-arm camera, as well as a DVR and GPS.

This camera solution provides low-cost monitoring of the entire bus range with no compromise in viewing quality or data storage. HD 1080p video and enhanced audio are provided with competitive pricing plans that make quality affordable.

Camera Configurations

Four cameras monitor the driver area and all seats, with minimal redundancies to cover most angles. If more cameras are required to record greater area or compensate for nonstandard dimensions, we have the options ready. The cameras keep their high-quality data safe on our top-of-the-line Fortress DVRs.

Our DVR recorder combines 4 GB of onboard storage with cloud-based uploading to keep data safe even in the event of sabotage or failure and ensures valuable video evidence remains accessible in the event of a catastrophe. We help you prepare for the worst to promote student safety and minimize liability.

Automatic downloads save valuable time — you no longer need to manually remove hard drives from vehicles. Instead, our automatic file systems upload HD video to the cloud to empower admins to log into cloud-based storage from anywhere and view incidents as they happen — or any time after.

Stop-Arm Cameras for School Buses

With clear and detailed imagery recorded at high speed, over distance in low-light conditions, you can capture license plates and driver faces with ease. No more grainy, low-quality images, but instead high-quality timestamped evidence of dangerous moving violations.

These HD video recording devices are IP-rated outdoor cameras solidly affixed to the side of the bus and detect motion when the stop-arm deploys to identify and capture images of vehicles that pass. When the stop-arm retracts, the camera stops recording to save valuable time and space. Your system only records when you need it most.

Accident Reporting

Capture events in full-color HD and share stop-arm violations with law enforcement with ease. Our cameras not only detect violations but provide a violation report generator, including digital affidavits, to ensure violators are brought to justice.

Real Events

Fortress Mobile made sure to record every piece of vital information in this crash. With six separate camera angles captured simultaneously and the perpetrator’s license plates recorded before and after the accident, the bus driver was absolved of any wrongdoing. As the other driver attempted a hit-and-run, Fortress Mobile automatically sent encrypted HD video evidence to law enforcement to help bring the perpetrator to justice.

Another hit-and-run, this time with a log truck that couldn’t stop in time and blew past stopped school buses. Fortunately, there were no injuries, but once again, the driver fled the scene. Law enforcement found the vehicle and driver fast thanks to legible, high-quality footage of his plate taken from the stop-arm cameras.
