  1. Danger zones mirrors1 of 3

    What is the danger zone around a school bus?

    The answer

    Answer: D. The danger zone is where children can be hit either by another vehicle or by their own bus. It is not under the bus, inside the bus or 500 feet ahead; it is the area on all sides of the bus where students are at greatest risk, which is why you must know who is in it.

    When should you check each mirror and have it adjusted if necessary?

    The answer

    Answer: B. Check each mirror before operating the bus to obtain the maximum viewing area. Waiting until after the first stop, checking once a week or adjusting only when students ask would leave blind spots, so every mirror is checked and adjusted before you operate the bus.

    How far behind the bus should the outside flat mirrors let you see when properly adjusted?

    The answer

    Answer: D. You should also be able to see along the sides of the bus and the rear tires touching the ground. Twenty feet, 60 feet and 500 feet are not the distance the manual gives, since a properly adjusted outside flat mirror shows 200 feet, or 4 bus lengths, behind the bus.
