School Transportation: How to Keep Your Child Safe

Every parent has the same thoughts about their child's safety when sending them off to school daily. Plus, if your child studies in a big city like New York, things can be even more complicated and dangerous. If you are on the same page, this article is for you.

The best solution for your child's safety is to book a professional car service to ensure your child gets to and from school safely every day. Here are some tips from Majestic Car and Limo on how to keep your child safe when using school transportation services.

1. Check the service's safety record

When you are looking for a professional car service for your child, be sure to check their safety record first. Any reputable company will have a clean record and be more than happy to provide references. Plus, make sure the service is insured and licensed.

2. Insist on background checks for all chauffeurs

All chauffeurs working for the car service should have clean backgrounds with no criminal history. Majestic Car and Limo requires all our chauffeurs to undergo an extensive screening process that includes a thorough background check. Usually, they should be trained in defensive training, CPR, and first aid.

3. Choose a service with GPS tracking

GPS tracking is a must-have these days, not just for safety but also for peace of mind. With GPS tracking, you can see exactly where your child's car is and be notified immediately if there is any deviation from the route. All vehicles are equipped with GPS tracking devices at Majestic Car & Limo.

4. Consider using a service that offers child seats

If you have younger children, make sure the car service you choose offers child seats. We can provide child seats upon request at no additional charge. Any safety-conscious service will offer this same courtesy. If not, keep looking.

5. Be sure the vehicle is well-maintained

All cars in the fleet should be late-model, well-maintained, and equipped with the latest safety features. We only use luxury vehicles that are well-maintained and regularly serviced to ensure they are in top condition.

6. Communicate with the service

Be sure to communicate your expectations and needs to the car service you choose. At Majestic Car and Limo, we work closely with our clients to ensure that all of their needs are met. We also offer a 24/7 customer support line, so you can always reach us if you have any questions or concerns.

7. Review the contract

Before you sign any contract, be sure to read and understand all of the terms and conditions. If anything is unclear, don't hesitate to ask for clarification. We will be happy to go over the contract with you in detail so that you can make an informed decision.

8. Ask about discounts

Many car services offer discounts for families with multiple children or those who book transportation for the entire school year. Be sure to ask about any available discounts when making your arrangements.

9. Get everything in writing

When you have finalized your arrangements, get everything in writing. This will help to avoid any misunderstandings later on. Of course, things may come, and changes may occur, but it's always best to have a written agreement. Afterward, we can make any necessary adjustments to the contract.

10. Relax and enjoy the ride

Once you have chosen a reputable car service and made all the necessary arrangements, you can rest assured that your child will be safe during their commute. So sit back and relax, knowing your child is in good hands.

 

Why Choose a Professional Car Service Over Public Transportation?

1. It's safer.

A professional car service puts safety first. With well-equipped vehicles in any weather and a chauffeur who is experienced in getting around the city, you can relax knowing that your child is in good hands.

2. It's more convenient.

With a car service, you can choose the pick-up and drop-off times that work best for your schedule. This means no more rushing to make the bus or waiting around for a late pick-up.

3. It's more comfortable.

Your child will enjoy a comfortable ride to and from school in a clean, spacious car. With plenty of room to stretch out and relax, the ride will be a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of the school day.

4. It's more affordable than you might think.

When you factor in the cost of gas, parking, and wear and tear on your vehicle, a professional car service can be more affordable than you might think.

5. It's a hassle-free way to get around town.

When you book a car service, all you have to do is sit back and relax. Your chauffeur will care for the rest, getting your child where he needs to go without any stress or hassle.

 

School transportation doesn't have to be a cause for worry. With a professional car service, you can rest assured that your child will arrive safe and sound.
