Susan’s son, Evan, is seven years old and takes the school bus every day. Evan loves joining his friends on the bus and waits patiently at the bus stop with his mom until it arrives to whisk him off to the second grade.
Susan is grateful for the school bus program and that the bus is almost always on time. She rushes off to work once she has waved goodbye to Evan on the bus. Today, on her way to work, she hears on the radio that a fallen tree has compromised the power lines on the route the school bus usually takes. She is worried about the hazard this may cause on Evan’s bus route. When she arrives at work and parks her car, Susan pulls up the app that the school bus company provides and quickly is able to ascertain that the driver has taken a different, safer route. She can even see where the bus is at that moment, in real time.
Susan breathes a sigh of relief. She can now begin her work day without worry!
