Mayas CarPool Student Transportation, LLC.

MFSAB is short for Multi-Function School Activity Bus. An MFSAB meets the same Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) as school buses but is not required to have stop arms or traffic control lights, and in most states is not required to be yellow. Studies have shown that school buses (including MFSAB’s) are the safest form of surface transportation. The National Safety Council estimates that the risk of death for a passenger traveling in a school bus is 172 times lower than for someone traveling in an automobile or other non-compliant vehicle. Vans that transport students are illegal in the state of Florida.

Yes, all our buses are in compliance with D.O.T. (Dept. of Transportation). They are inspected, registered and a certificate number is printed on every one of our buses. Also, they are safely and mechanically inspected yearly as required by the State of Florida.

Our buses are inspected thoroughly on a quarterly basis, but daily inspections by each driver are required to report any trouble with brakes, electrical, wipers, lights, etc.

Yes, our buses are your confidence that your children are covered properly.

Yes, our buses are equipped with GPS and road face cameras. This way, we always know where the bus that carries your child is in case of emergency. We also monitor the proper speed of every bus and other behaviors to ensure the safest operation of every bus by every driver.

Since we are dealing with the most precious cargo, your children, we go through a rigorous process to choose our drivers. We require clean licenses for 2-3 years, and for this, we check with the DMV and the insurance databases to ensure a responsible driver is behind the wheel of our buses. On buses with more than 14 passengers, we require a CDL (Commercial Driver License). We also perform a background check as well as drug tests on every driver. Each driver must have a physical examination required by the D.O.T. in order to obtain his/her D.O.T. medical certificate.

Yes. All of our drivers are trained by a CDL instructor for the routes, as well as for good driving habits. We follow our drivers at random to observe how well they do their job of driving safely. On this, we have a zero tolerance for unsafe driving behaviors. We also match every route to the driver’s ability/experience as some routes are more complicated or demanding than others.

Home to school is a route directly from home to the front of the school. Point to Point is from a particular point of pick up where an adult is with the child to another point where a teacher or guardian receives the child. Note: NO CHILD WILL BE LEFT ALONE unless a parent or guardian meets him/her.

Registration is something you should do as soon as possible. From December on is ideal, as seats fill up quickly and we cannot guarantee a space if you register late. Keep in mind, that seats are always limited and on a first come (register) first served basis.
