SoundOff Signal
SoundOff Signal's Anti-Theft Device allows you to handle emergency situations without the fear of someone driving away with your bus. When the switch is turned on, the system allows you to remove the key from the ignition switch while your bus remains running. This enables you to continue any non-driving feature to operate the bus. The driver can run the vehicle lights, air conditioning or heater, and still leave the bus to address emergency or child assist situations. Any movement made to the brake pedal and shift lever will immediately kill the engine, and thus prevent bus hijacking.
