Bus Specifications, Recalls & Inspection

The Oklahoma School Bus Inspection has developed a new bus inspector program.  All current bus inspectors must attend a refresher course provided by a Bus Inspector Trainer (list of trainers are below) by June 30, 2021.  All refresher course attendees must complete the School Bus Inspector Application below.  The trainer must sign off on the application.  The completed application, once the refresher course has been completed and the trainer has signed the application, send the application to the Oklahoma State Department of Education, Office of Pupil Transportation.
