The Berks County Pupil Transportation Association — a group made up of school bus drivers and supervisors from local school districts and companies that provide bus services — held its 49th annual School Bus Safety Competition on Saturday. The event allows local school bus drivers, including the HEROES drivers from ASTP partner Krise Transportation, to show off their skills and have a good time.

The event invited bus drivers from around the county to compete in 10 categories, including behind-the-wheel challenges, a written test, and a bus inspection.

Drivers received a score for each event, and the top 10 drivers have a chance to participate in a state competition scheduled for June 2023. ASTP partner Krise Transportation was a standout, placing in five of the top ten spots.
