Remember the song The Wheels on the Bus go Round and Round…? It takes more than just gasoline and tires to make those wheels turn. Transportation careers include drivers, mechanics, airline pilots, distribution managers, and more. Moving products and people from one place to another takes planning, analysis, technology, and reliable equipment…like your school bus.
