About Pennsylvania School Bus Association

The Pennsylvania School Bus Association is a group of nearly 400 school bus contractors from across Pennsylvania who have come together to be a strong voice for school bus safety and the school bus contracting industry.

Our mission is to provide programs, education, and services to promote and foster the highest degree of safety in the transportation of school children and strengthen the quality of student transportation through professional management. PSBA works with many Pennsylvania organizations and government agencies to advance the mission and accomplish the goals of the membership.

We believe that gaining the respect and confidence of the students, parents, school administration, and members of the community provide the incentive to accomplish and maintain the highest degree of ethical conduct.

School Bus Driver Skills Test Exams (September 2010)

In recent weeks the PSBA has received numerous telephone calls about the difficulty scheduling drivers for skills test at the PennDOT driver license centers across the state. In most instances the PennDOT sites are 6-8 weeks out scheduling appointments. The only alternative for contractors is to schedule the skills test with a Third Party Testing Site. PennDOT provides a link of all Third Party Testers open to the public in Pennsylvania including PennDOT Driver License Centers.
