Childcare and activity buses that feature all the
strength and safety found in our full-sized school buses.

MyBus protects your passengers like no other. MyBus doesn’t just meet the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) for school buses, it exceeds them. We build our unique, steel-cage bodies on an ultra-rugged GM school bus chassis that features a strong framework of one-piece, skirt-to-skirt roof bows, heavy-duty crash rails, 16-gauge aluminum side panels and continuous roof sections.

Additional MyBus safety features:

• Steel cage body with one-piece, 14-gauge steel bow frames to provide greater strength in case of rollover
• 16-gauge aluminum side panels
• Double-profile, 12-gauge steel bumpers with a wraparound design to provide protection from side impacts
• Emergency door and wide center aisle provides easy exit in emergencies
