Emergency Drop Points <br />Emergency drop points are pre -designated safe locations that are used by drivers to drop off <br />passengers whenever instructed to do so by the dispatcher or the designated backup. In the event <br />of an emergency, the dispatcher ensures that the driver has been contacted and given instructions <br />as to where to drop off passengers, and the estimated time to drop off. <br />Decisions on selection of drop points are based on the following: <br />• All points must be manned <br />• Geographic distribution <br />• Physical safety of drop points <br />• Prioritization of passenger needs based on critical factors (i.e, medical needs of persons in <br />the area, environmental conditions, etc.) <br />• Availability of on-site personnel to address passenger needs <br />Pre-existing agreements are in place for all drop points and the list of drop points is maintained <br />by Cabarrus County Transportation Service and reviewed on a quarterly basis. <br />3.2E — COMPUTER SECURITY <br />Computer backups of key financial, personnel, dispatching, and other information are performed <br />regularly.
