School Bus Practice Question 57

SSchool Bus · Question 57

The driver should know:

  • AThe route, the stops, the students assigned, and emergency contacts
  • BOnly the route
  • COnly the schedule
  • DOnly the bus number

Correct answer: A. The route, the stops, the students assigned, and emergency contacts

Why: Know your route inside and out — including which students board where, who their parents are, and what to do in an emergency.

How this question fits the School Bus test

Most fatal school bus incidents happen outside the bus, in the danger zones around it. This endorsement exists to make sure every driver can predict the behavior of children entering and exiting the loading zone.

Study technique for this topic

Know the dimensions of the front, side, and rear danger zones, the proper eight-light activation sequence, and the emergency evacuation procedure including front-door, rear-door, and split evacuations.
