SCR 94 (Harman) - As Introduced: March 24, 2010
SUBJECT : Schoolbus Drivers' Day.
SUMMARY : Designates April 27, 2010, as Schoolbus Drivers' Day
in California, in order to draw special public attention to
schoolbus drivers for their continued and excellent services to
pupils in California. Specifically, this resolution makes the
following legislative findings:
1)Personal time and energy are expended by schoolbus drivers in
their initial training, maintaining a current license,
perfecting their driving skills, and accruing added knowledge
of schoolbus laws through continuing education classes; and
schoolbus drivers perform their services for thousands of
accident-free miles, year after year.
2)Schoolbus drivers often face natural and unexpected hazards in
the performance of their duties; and these drivers
consistently demonstrate an awareness of, and direct attention
to, the mechanical maintenance of the schoolbus and safety
conditions of the schoolbus routes.
3)The safety of our children rests in the hands of trained
schoolbus drivers each day; and schoolbus drivers, through
counseling and disciplinary techniques, are sometimes asked to
assist pupils in appropriate interactive peer and adult
behavior.
4)Schoolbus drivers are recognized annually for their continued
and excellent services to the youth of the state by the people
of California; and these drivers are deserving of special
public recognition and the highest commendations.
