ADROIT Partners with Motive to Enhance Safety and Support for Special Needs Students Nationwide

Special Transportation Provider ADROIT Leverages Motive to Enhance Student Safety and Driver Support SAN FRANCISCO—(BUSINESS WIRE)—ADROIT Advanced Technologies, a leading provider of alternative student transportation, has announced a strategic partnership with Motive, an AI-powered Integrated Operations Platform. This collaboration aims to bolster the safety and accountability of ADROIT’s services, particularly for special needs students who require specialized accommodations or live beyond regular bus routes. Through this partnership, ADROIT will install Motive’s state-of-the-art AI-powered fleet safety cameras and Vehicle Gateways across its entire fleet, offering enhanced protection and transparency to students, drivers, and school districts nationwide. The decision to partner with Motive followed a rigorous three-month pilot program conducted in Massachusetts and Arizona. During this trial, ADROIT tested Motive’s AI dashcams alongside those of several other leading competitors to identify the most accurate and effective safety solution. Motive was ultimately chosen for its real-time safety alerts, on-demand trip footage, and around-the-clock customer support, all of which are crucial for maintaining operational standards and complying with school district requirements. This expansion will enable ADROIT to meet stringent operational and regulatory standards while improving communication and reducing the risk of accidents. Parents and educators can take comfort in the increased visibility into vehicle activity, ensuring a safer and more reliable transportation experience for special needs students. “Safety is paramount to our mission in serving education communities,” stated Ryan King, Vice President of Operations for ADROIT. “We are excited to partner with Motive to introduce AI-powered fleet safety cameras and vehicle reporting. These advancements provide greater transparency for families, drivers, and school districts, supporting both our current operations and our future growth.” Motive’s technology is designed to create safer driving conditions by leveraging advanced AI for real-time monitoring and intervention. “Enhancing the safety of students and drivers is a fundamental goal at Motive,” said Abhishek Gupta, Senior Vice President of Product Management at Motive. “We are honored to support ADROIT’s innovative approach to student transportation with solutions that reduce risk and improve operational efficiency.” ADROIT takes extensive measures to ensure the safety and reliability of its services, including comprehensive background checks and the requirement of certified, wheelchair-accessible vehicles. Since its founding in 2017, ADROIT has safely transported students over 3 million miles, making a significant impact in communities across California, Arizona, Wisconsin, Missouri, and Texas.
