DORAN MFG LLC SLEEPING CHILD CHECK
HOW IT WORKS
Doran Manufacturing’s Sleeping Child Check (SCC) is an electronic device that, when
armed, is designed to force the bus driver to walk to the back of the bus and de-activate
the system before leaving the vehicle. If the driver fails to do so, and exits the bus
through the front door, the horn will immediately sound.
Doran designed this unique system with the children’s safety in mind. L
eaving a child
on an empty school bus at the end of a route would create a nightmare for the
youngster, his family and the school district.
Doran’s Sleeping Child Check gives you the peace of mind in knowing that the bus
driver cannot deactivate the system without first walking to the back of the bus - virtually
eliminating the possibility that a child will be left behind.
