KIM school bus-CPS training coming together

Phew!
I'm getting ready to leave for India for almost a month, and now one of the plans I'd been hoping would come to reality is about to be announced.
I wanted to hold a session of the NHTSA school bus-CPS course before the KIM conference in Fort Worth. The location is ideal, as two of the most seasoned trainers for this course are in Texas. Now it looks like it will really happen.
It will be an 8-hour, train-the-trainer presentation—only for CPSTs and CPSTIs—on August 25.
I hope to see some of you there.

LATCH talk among the cabbages

Today, while in the grocery store, I took a call from my contact with the LATCH Working Group, who shared with me that the auto manufacturers are holding several meetings to discuss the Sunshine Kids SuperLATCH. Even the next “Safety Policy Meeting” of the higher-ups with the Alliance of Automotive Manufacturers has it on their agenda. So the good news is that they are definitely paying attention to this innovation and hope to have some definitive response fairly soon. SRN will report all.

And, no, I didn’t let on that I was in the vegetable department! I simply took notes on the back of my list.
