Event Flyer

The Safety Competition, also known as "Roadeo," is limited to the first 125 entries on a first-come, first-served basis. It is open to all contractor and school district drivers with employer approval and verification. 

The event begins with a written test. Then, contestants get behind the wheel of a bus to put their driving skills to the test, competing in one of three categories – convention, transit, and small bus. Drivers can demonstrate their professionalism, skill, and dedication to pupil transportation throughout the competition. The event concludes with an Awards Ceremony announcing the competition winners.
