From a training perspective, it can be extremely effective to infuse real-life situations into training modules. It gives people something to identify with at a personal level. Today I was exposed to a heartbreaking story about a school bus accident. It is a story I will never forget, because the people who were affected the most choose to use the experience to educate others about the dangers of being distracted while driving. In 2011 a young boy was hit and killed by his school bus while unloading. The family, in collaboration with the Missouri Association of Pupil Transportation, created a video that should be viewed by anyone who currently drives a school bus or anyone who is considering driving a school bus. Take the time to learn from this situation and take steps to keep it from happening in another community and to another family.
