Emergency evacuation1 of 3
The answer
Answer: B. If time permits, contact your dispatcher to explain the situation before deciding to evacuate. Calling parents, starting the engine and turning the bus around come after you understand the problem, because you cannot choose the right response until you recognise the hazard.

Emergency evacuation2 of 3
The answer
Answer: B. Mandatory evacuations also include a bus stalled on or adjacent to a railroad-highway crossing. A student who feels ill, a late schedule or low fuel are problems to handle without an evacuation, whereas fire or a threat of fire and a bus stalled at a railroad crossing require everyone out.

Emergency evacuation3 of 3
The answer
Answer: C. This keeps students from being hit by debris if another vehicle collides with the bus. Ten feet off the road away from traffic, 500 feet along the road or directly beside the bus would not protect students from debris, so the safe place is 100 feet off the road toward oncoming traffic.
