Absolutely. In fact, our coverage exceeds current regulatory requirements. We have a customized insurance coverage specifically designed for transporting children, and have worked closely with our insurance brokers to establish and monitor ongoing safety procedures.

All vehicles have to pass a 19 points vehicles inspection and we ask all drivers to provide a third party vehicle inspection. In addition, all inspections have to renewed annually.

The 19-point vehicle inspection is an industry standard mechanics use to evaluate and ensure a car’s safety and operability. This inspection covers testing that ranges from fluids to the suspension system. All vehicles must be certified by a professional mechanic and be 10 years old or newer.

We monitor every ride via live GPS tracking. Because of our proprietary advanced technological system, we are able to detect phone usage for each driver. Adroit has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to texting or talking while driving.

If an accident occurs, the driver is instructed to safely pull to the shoulder of the road and call the authorities, emergency responders (as necessary), and our live driver support team. The school district and the student’s legal guardians are also notified to let them know what happened and what the next step will be.
