BACK TO SCHOOL

As kids go back to school this month, drivers should be on the lookout for increased numbers of children, bicycles, and buses. 

  • To prevent accidents, always stay aware on the road. 
  • Stop for buses with flashing lights.
  • Never pass a school bus on the right. 
  • Remember that children can be unpredictable.
  • Allow plenty of clearance around buses and near crosswalks.
  • Allow at least 3 feet of clearance when passing bicycles.
  • Assume that kids may not be aware of surrounding traffic.

 

Take extra precautions in school zones and neighborhood areas as kids return to school.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN? LOGISTICS LEXICON

This month in our Logistics Lexicon series, we’re talking about just-in-time (JIT) logistics. Just-in-time is a method in which you keep as little inventory on hand as possible and ship goods in smaller, more frequent lots. The process minimizes the times required to source, handle, produce, transport, and deliver products in order to meet customer requirements.
