The Nation’s Choice for School Bus Seat Belts

When it comes to seat belts on school buses, SafeGuard is the nation’s choice.

SafeGuard, a brand of IMMI, introduced lap-shoulder belts to school buses more than a decade ago, and we continue to lead and innovate the most effective ways to keep students safer and better behaved while saving school districts money. The most crash tested seats on the market, SafeGuard seats are also the only seats with SmartFrame and SmartFrame Plus technology to protect both belted and unbelted passengers.

Like NHTSA, the Academy of Pediatrics, NASDPTS, and so many more, SafeGuard believes every student deserves the added protection of wearing a lap-shoulder seat belt on the school bus, and that belief fuels every invention, every upgrade, and every close working relationship we forge with school districts to the manufacturers. Forget all the myths you’ve heard about seat belts on school buses. They’re just that: myths.

Compartmentalization is not enough to fully protect children on the school bus. Aside from the potential of actually causing injuries when children impact the seat in front of them in a crash or sudden stop, compartmentalization completely fails in side impacts and rollovers.

Lap-shoulder belts keep children in their seats and seated correctly, which also has the benefit, when paired with an enforced usage policy, of reducing distracting behavior and bullying. When you have better behaved students, you also have happier and less distracted drivers.

The largest manufacturer of child car seat components in the world, IMMI is trusted by more leading brands, and more parents, to protect children in vehicles than any other. Whether you’re looking for lap-shoulder belts or you’re in need of our popular STAR portable restraints, IMMI has been the go-to choice for school districts for more than 20 years. Our products are the only ones that are CAPE tested at the Center for Advanced Product Evaluation, a premiere crash test facility, that has crash tested more car seats, bus seats, and school buses than anyone else.

With SafeGuard, you know you’re getting quality that meets and often exceeds expectations. When you’re entrusted with transporting our country’s most precious cargo, that’s the kind of peace of mind you, and parents, deserve.

If your district is ready for safer and better behaved school buses, SafeGuard is here to help you make it happen.
