Question 4

Where must a labeled Class 7 radioactive package never be stored on a passenger-carrying vehicle?

  1. A In a compartment occupied by people
  2. B In the vehicle’s trunk
  3. C In a separate baggage compartment
  4. D In an authorized cargo area separated from passengers

Correct answer: A – In a compartment occupied by people

Additional quantity restrictions also apply.

Question 5

When may certain emergency roof hatches be secured in a partly open position?

  1. A When fresh-air ventilation is needed
  2. B Whenever the bus is carrying passengers
  3. C Only to provide maintenance access
  4. D Under no circumstances

Correct answer: A – When fresh-air ventilation is needed

Certain emergency roof hatches can be locked partly open to provide fresh air. They should not be left open as a regular practice. An open hatch also increases the bus’s effective height, so the driver must account for reduced overhead clearance.

Question 6

May a bus be driven with an emergency exit door or emergency exit window open?

  1. A Yes, whenever ventilation is needed

  3. C Only with a supervisor’s approval
  4. D No

Correct answer: D – No

Never drive with an emergency exit door or window open. During the exterior inspection, close any open emergency exits before driving. Emergency exits must also operate properly and close securely so they remain ready for an actual evacuation.
