  1. What is the purpose of the two-way radio system installed in most pupil transport vehicles?

    Answer: To maintain real-time communication with dispatch for safety and routing updates

    Two-way radios allow drivers to stay in contact with dispatch to report emergencies, request assistance, and receive routing changes.

  2. A 7D driver is contacted by a parent asking for the home address of another student on the route. How should the driver respond?

    Answer: Decline to share and direct the parent to the school office

    Student information is protected under FERPA and school privacy policies; drivers must refer all such requests to school administration.

  3. What should a 7D driver do when a student is picked up from an unscheduled address for the first time?

    Answer: Require written or verified authorization from the school before accepting the change

    Changes to student pick-up or drop-off locations must be authorized in writing or through official school channels before drivers act on them.

  4. Which of the following is an example of a required written communication in a 7D driver's daily log?

    Answer: Notation of any vehicle defects observed during pre-trip inspection

    Pre-trip inspection defects must be recorded in the daily vehicle inspection report (DVIR) as required by FMCSA regulations.

  5. When a student's authorized pick-up person is not recognized at a stop, what should the 7D driver do?

    Answer: Retain the student on the vehicle and contact dispatch or the school for verification

    Students may only be released to authorized individuals; unrecognized adults require school verification before the driver releases the child.

  6. What type of log must a 7D driver maintain when transporting students with IEPs (Individualized Education Programs)?

    Answer: A record of any transport-related accommodations or incidents specific to each IEP student

    IEP students often have transport-specific accommodations that must be documented and followed, and any incidents must be recorded.
