CDL · School bus (CDL)
Students are getting off at their assigned stop. Before you drive on, how far from the side of the bus must they be?
Correct answer: At least 10 feet away.
Answer options
- AAbout 3 feet away
- BOnly a step or two away
- CAt least 10 feet away Correct
Why
At their stop, students must be told to move 10 feet or more away from the bus's side, which lets the driver see and count every one of them before pulling out. A step or two from the door still leaves a child in an area the driver may not be able to see.
