Driver Safety and Certifications at Higher Learning Transportation Services
Every Higher Learning Transportation Services driver is CPR certified, trained in First Aid, has passed a criminal background check, and maintains a clean driving record. Drivers complete certified training covering safe driving conditions, customer service, and the specific needs of child passengers, and that training continues on an ongoing basis rather than ending at hire. All HLTS vehicles are commercially insured and registered in the state of North Carolina, and drivers conduct a documented safety and cleanliness inspection of their vehicle every day before the first pickup.
Safe Driver Training & Safety Commitment
At Higher Learning Transportation, we prioritize safety through comprehensive and ongoing driver training programs. Our drivers undergo certified training that covers safe driving conditions, exemplary customer service, and the specific transportation needs of children. This ensures that every ride is secure and tailored to meet our passengers' unique requirements.
Safety First
We adhere strictly to all North Carolina state laws and requirements, emphasizing the importance of seat belts for both drivers and passengers. Our policy mandates that no ride will commence or continue unless all passengers are properly restrained. For added security, each driver carries a cell phone for emergencies, and our vehicles are equipped with essential safety items such as first aid kits, fire extinguishers, and hand sanitizer.
Our fleet's safety and reliability are assured through regular maintenance and detailed inspections conducted three times a year—before the school year, during the Christmas holidays, and over spring break.
Dedicated Employees
Our team of employees is certified in CPR and trained in first aid techniques to handle any situation that may arise. All staff members have passed thorough background checks and maintain a clean driving record, reflecting our commitment to safety and trust.
