At Thomas Built Buses, we are now offering the WABCO OnGuardACTIVETM collision mitigation system as a factory-installed option for our Saf-T-Liner® C2 school bus. Built with radar-based anti-collision technology, this safety system enables collision warning, active braking and adaptive cruise control.
Some of the benefits of the OnGuardACTIVE system include:
Beyond state-of-the-art safety features, OnGuardACTIVE technology also integrates with telematics and monitoring systems. This makes it easy for fleet managers to monitor driver performance if necessary.
After software installation, we provide all fleet managers and drivers with specialized training on OnGuardACTIVE capabilities.
While the system is designed to help drivers mitigate collisions, no technology could ever replace driver training needs and/or the importance of practicing safe driving habits.
To protect your fleet from potential collisions, start by contacting a local dealer to learn more about the OnGuardACTIVE system.
