Investigators continue to assess the company’s entire fleet to confirm regulatory compliance, with additional checks planned to determine if other vehicles are operating without proper coverage.

Initial seizures involved the first four buses being impounded for lacking insurance, with the latest check revealing a fifth bus carrying five children and a chaperone and also uninsured, resulting in towing.

Brussels-area police have seized and diverted school buses from a single transport company after finding serious insurance breaches, escorting several under-18 passengers in unmarked police vehicles to their schools.

Following the initial seizures, neighboring zones in Dilbeek and Pajottenland moved three more buses off the road, transferring the children aboard to police vans to ensure they reach school safely.

Authorities characterized the breaches as serious and warranting immediate seizure, coordinating checks across three police services to uncover broader rule violations.

As a temporary measure, the company supplied a replacement bus to keep students on their way to school while investigations proceed.

The last bus in Pajottenland was found empty except for the driver when removed from service, underscoring scale and logistical impact of the action.

Subsequent findings identified four additional uninsured buses from the same company, expanding the enforcement scope.

Overall, eight school buses from the single transport company were seized across Brussels-area zones due to insurance deficiencies, including four uninsured buses located in Zennevallei (Hal, Beersel, and Leeuw-Saint-Pierre).
