Officials did not say how many buses officers will ride or follow.
On Nov. 21, 24-year-old Johnthony Walker was driving 37 elementary students home when the bus left the curvy road, hit a utility pole, overturned and hit a tree, collapsing the roof.
Walker, who worked for contractor Durham School Services, faces vehicular homicide charges.
Police estimate he drove 48 to 52 miles per hour in a 30 mile-per-hour zone.
