Ensuring the safety of students during transportation is a top priority for schools across Maharashtra. To uphold safety standards, the government has made it mandatory for school buses to have an AIS140 GPS device and a VLTD (Vehicle Location Tracking Device) certificate to obtain RTO passing.

But why is this requirement so important? Let’s break down the significance of these certifications and how Tracko can help schools meet these regulations efficiently.

Why AIS140 GPS and VLTD Certification Are Mandatory

The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has mandated that all commercial and passenger vehicles, including school buses, be equipped with AIS140-compliant GPS devices. These devices are designed to enhance safety through:

1. Live Location Tracking: Real-time monitoring ensures that schools and parents know the exact location of the bus at all times.
2. Emergency Alert Button: An SOS button is integrated for quick response during emergencies, providing additional safety for students.
3. Remote Monitoring: Authorities can track school buses remotely to ensure safe and efficient transportation.
4. Compliance with RTO Norms: Obtaining the VLTD certificate and Vahan certificate is essential for getting RTO passing. Without these certifications, buses are considered non-compliant and cannot legally operate.

What Happens If a School Bus Lacks VLTD Certification?

Operating a school bus without the required certification can result in severe consequences, such as:

• Legal Issues: The school may face fines and penalties for non-compliance.
• Operational Halt: The bus may be barred from transportation services, causing inconvenience to students and parents.
• Safety Concerns: Without GPS tracking, monitoring the bus’s location and safety status becomes challenging.
