What else is covered on the School Bus knowledge test?
General driving behavior categories apply to School Bus drivers like any CDL holder: proper clutch and gear usage, smooth braking, correct lane position on turns, steering control, and consistent mirror checks. On top of this, School Bus (S) has its own prerequisite: you must already hold, or be earning at the same time, the Passenger (P) endorsement, since a school bus is legally a passenger-carrying vehicle.
This test draws from our full School Bus question set and covers all exam topics, including driving behavior and requirements. 40 questions in the set, 20 per attempt, passing score 16.
