Welcome to First Light

What we’ve learned since installing these signs is that they are definitely brighter in low light conditions and even local law enforcement has commented on how much more visible the school bus is.  

We have a lot of industrial traffic; the Illuminated School Bus from First Light Safety helps to ensure motorists do not mistake our School Buses for any other vehicle. We are impressed with the quality and service provided and can't wait to install their new Fully Illuminated Stop Arm.

It is exciting to see my first customer Alvin ISD with the new Fully Illuminated Stop Arms. Their excitement for the new products from First Light Safety Products is refreshing. I believe the Fully Illuminated Stop Arms is a long-overdue technology for our School Buses.

The Fully Illuminated Stop Arms are very attention-grabbing and easy to install! Seeing them lit up in the morning is like watching a parade of lights. We have added them to 44 of our special needs buses and could not be happier with the results.

These are a great addition to making our school buses as visible as possible on the roadway. Our stop arm cameras are excellent in capturing people who pass our stopped bus, however they are reactive. [First Light’s Illuminated School Bus] Signs and our LED warning lights are all proactive in helping motorists realize it’s a school bus and to stop.

Student safety is the most important part of School Bus operation. First Light Safety has developed products that keep our students safe throughout the entire transportation process. From maintaining high visibility with an Illuminated School Bus Sign to illuminating loading and unloading stops with a Fully Illuminated Stop Arm. First Light Safety is creating products to protect our greatest asset, our future.

The first time I saw a school bus outfitted with First Light’s school bus sign & stop arms I thought to myself: I don’t understand why these aren’t mandatory on every school bus out there.

Install was easy. It helps the motorists see our school bus at a greater distance, especially on our highway route.

The illumination of the First Light Safety school bus sign has been a big help in getting drivers to recognise an approaching school bus from further distances. This has been a big help in safeguarding children entering/exiting the buses in the early morning/late evening hours, especially on our inner city and rural routes.

I decided to specify the First Light Illuminated School Bus Signs on my new bus purchases this year. Upon first seeing the Illuminated School Bus Sign, it was apparent this is a significant improvement for the safety of our students and our community. Furthermore, these signs should be a requirement on every new bus in North America.

I am happy to say how impressed I am by these signs; they are a great product that greatly improves the bus being seen, which is exactly what I was looking for. My 35-year mechanic was skeptical, he installed them, and he was blown away. That alone says something. He was good with the install and loved how clean the "School Bus" signs were. The customer service I have received from FLSP has been absolutely excellent!

Thank you FLSP for this awesome innovation! We are super excited to have the new school bus signs and stop arms on our buses. These lights are seen out here on our county roads! The safety of our students is our #1 PRIORITY!

The installation was easier than expected, and our team was blown away when we saw the sign lit up for the first time. We are looking forward to equipping all of the buses in our fleet, providing additional safety to our students!

It will be a big help on the highway in the morning where that route goes. There is no lighting on that stretch of highway so the more light the better.

I haven’t been this excited about a new product in a long time!

I pass several of my buses on the way to the office every morning, a few of the buses have First Light's signs, and a few do not, and the buses that do are so much more obvious than the others. You can't miss the bus. It no longer blends in with the traffic. The signs really pop. Just one more way we are keeping our students safe.

I love the product and so do our drivers. It makes our buses look better and they are safer, too.

First morning students waiting on the bus got on and asked the driver if it was a new bus because they noticed the signage lit up. We are very excited to have this safety device on two of our buses and will be installing more in the near future. All future buses will be ordered with First Light factory installed.

We decided to try out the school bus sign to see if it was worth getting more.  I installed it, and it was not too hard to install.  I have looked at the sign and noticed instantly when it is coming. You can see the sign a long way and it is really good when it is foggy.  We plan on equipping our buses with this product.

Anyone concerned about safety needs these signs. They draw your attention to where it needs to be.

The signs are great and really stand out at night. The difference is amazing!

I was very impressed with your signs when I first saw them. They stand out in day and dim light situations. The signs are made with heavy duty quality materials and the fact that you incorporated LED lighting makes it stand out over any other competitors' products that I have seen.  I definitely would recommend your product to others.

The safety of students is top priority, and visibility is a key factor at school bus stops. The new lighting system will make the school buses more visible to motorists and help keep their precious cargo safe.

Everyone stops for my bus. Vehicles on both sides of the road stop, and it didn’t use to be that way.

This definitely changes the equation, now there is no way any motorist can tell any traffic court judge anywhere that they did not see the school bus. This is such an unbelievable upgrade for the safety of our students.

In the 19 years, I’ve been in school transportation, I can honestly say it’s the best innovation I’ve seen, which truly updates the school bus and makes it visible from a distance and enhances its visibility. I have received nothing but positive remarks from administrators and staff alike.

These signs are a game-changer.

I’d rather stop them than catch them. First Light’s illuminated stop arm will prevent accidents and fatalities.

My top priority is the safety of our students. Thank you to First Light for lighting the way for our students with the SAFEST and BRIGHTEST Stop Arm on the market. We need all schools to work together to get these signs on all buses across North America! I can't wait to install them!

Since the first day it was put on, it has brought a significant amount of attention to the bus. People are drawn to it by how visible it is. It doesn’t matter if it is daylight or at night, it sticks out! The sign does more than just light up, it keeps the bulkheads dry on so many makes and models of buses. I am very proud to say, that this will be a standard on all our new buses going forward.

I wanted something that would bring more immediate attention to students loading and unloading a school bus. The Fully Illuminated Stop Arm from First Light Safety Products does just that for us. I am pleasantly surprised with how much light these stop arms omit. Without a doubt these stop arms bring attention and visibility to our bus stops.

Drivers are so impressed with the visibility; they're now requesting buses with the First Light Stop Arm installed. Traffic now has ample time to notice a stopped bus. Where traffic was once passing on the reds, we now have safe loading and unloading for our students. All new buses will be equipped with have First Light Stop Arms!
