STOPPING ILLEGAL PASSINGS BEFORE THEY HAPPEN:
Illuminated Safety Features That Protect Students and Drivers
The most significant safety obstacle in pupil transportation is managing high-risk loading zones and roadways with frequent stop-arm violations. Even the most skilled and alert bus driver cannot control how other motorists behave, but visibility can. First Light’s Fully Illuminated Stop Arm™ and Illuminated School Bus Sign™ provide clear, uniform illumination that is visible from over 1,000 feet away. This gives motorists the maximum amount of time to stop, allowing students to load and unload the bus safely.
Districts across the country, from Montana to New York, are reporting measurable improvements in motorist awareness and student safety with First Light products.
Brooks McQuinn, Transportation Supervisor at Malone Central School District in New York, boasts, “We absolutely love the First Light signs. They have stopped a lot of red light runners for us. You can see them from far, far, far away. We will never get any buses without them.”

In Montana, Transportation Director, Paul Sundgren and Assistant, Brandee Bahnmiller, from Cut Bank School District 15 say, “We greatly appreciate the added visibility First Light gives to our buses. We have several areas of roadways that have been problematic... The added visibility has greatly increased student safety and reduced the number of times people have run the stop sign – so far, no reports this year! We were very impressed with the ease of installation as well.”
“Thanks to First Light, our buses are more visible, our drivers are safer, and we couldn’t be happier!
...First Light’s products help ensure that every driver is supported by equipment that makes their job safer and more visible.”

When motorists clearly recognize a school bus from a distance and clearly see the STOP sign, bus drivers can focus on student management, situational awareness, and safety protocols. The Fully Illuminated Stop Arm™ and Illuminated School Bus Sign™ put student safety first and are proven to reduce illegal passings.
