CDL · School bus (CDL)
A student draws a gun on your school bus and orders you to drive to a certain place. How should you respond?
Correct answer: Do as the hijacker says and drive there.
Answer options
- AReach for the gun and try to wrestle it away
- BRefuse, saying you are not authorized to go there
- CDo as the hijacker says and drive there Correct

When a weapon is involved, the goal is to avoid anything that could make the situation turn violent. Going along with the demands is the least dangerous response; trying to disarm the student or flatly refusing could provoke the hijacker into using the gun.
