Stop Guard™ HOW IT WORKS
Detection:
Cameras activate when the bus stops and extends its stop-arm.
Evidence:
The system records high-resolution video and images of the vehicle and license plate.
Review:
A rigorous human review process ensures high-quality evidence packages that withstand legal scrutiny.
Stop Guard seamlessly unifies advanced technology and expert oversight into a cohesive safety solution engineered for security, evidence integrity, and issuing citations only when a verified violation has occurred.
Stop Guard isn’t a product. It’s a complete safety program.
Designed as an end‑to‑end stop‑arm safety program, Stop Guard integrates intelligent hardware, intuitive software, and expert services into one unified platform, providing districts with everything required to operate a safe, compliant, and seamless stop‑arm program.
Intelligence that activates the moment it’s needed.
AI‑powered cameras automatically monitor the road in real time when the stop‑arm extends. High‑resolution video captures the visual details of the event, while bus data and GPS information are securely added to the evidence package to create a precise, end‑to‑end record.
Reviewed by experts. Confirmed through compliance.
Each potential violation undergoes a structured, multi‑layer expert human review and is evaluated and processed in accordance with all local regulations before it is submitted to law enforcement for approval.
Automation with accountability.
This thoughtful balance of intelligent automation and rigorous oversight protects due process, upholds legal defensibility, and ensures every enforcement action is grounded in fairness and compliance, keeping school safety sustainable for the long term.
