Starting this summer, if you pass a school bus, you could get a letter in the mail with a warning and photos of you doing it, plus a link to a video captured by eight cameras now installed on Buffalo Public Schools' buses.

Bus Patrol is a company working with BPS and the City of Buffalo to install stop arm-cameras powered by artificial intelligence to identify drivers who break the law.

It’s a service free to the schools and funded by violations. AI records the incident and city workers review it before issuing warnings and citations.

BusPatrol President Justin Meyers said millions of violations occur every year.   

"It's unfortunate but for a child, going to school should be the easiest and safest thing they do in their day. But amazingly, statistically, getting on and off the buses is one of the most dangerous things," said Meyers.

The grace period of only issuing warnings begins July 1. Later in the year, those warnings will become fines.
