Loading & UnloadingQuestion 18 of 80
The 'unloading' procedure differs from loading mainly because:
a.Fewer lights are needed
b.Students may need to cross and leave the danger zone, so you must confirm all are clear before moving
c.The stop arm is not used
d.Mirrors are unnecessary
Explanation
During unloading, students exit and some must cross the road, so the critical step is confirming all students have moved out of the danger zone before you drive away. You must watch that every crossing student reaches the far side or curb. A miscount here is a leading cause of student fatalities.
