The Transportation Department includes two vehicle maintenance facilities used to maintain all district vehicles. FUSD drivers receive ongoing FMCSA and AZDPS applicable and relevant training, which exceeds Arizona minimum standards. All drivers must be a minimum of 18 years of age, possess a Commercial Driver's License, State Bus Driver Certificate, pass a physical performance test, and undergo random and annual drug testing.

School Bus Safety Tips
Arrive at your bus stop and wait in line 5 minutes before the scheduled time.
Never cross in front of the bus without the bus drivers signaling that it is safe.
Never cross behind the bus, or walk or run beside the bus.
If you drop something on the ground, do not bend or run to pick it up – let your driver know and they will assist you in retrieving it.
Have your ID ready to scan when loading and unloading.
