Sample Wyoming Passenger Test Questions

Question 1

Which practice helps a bus driver maintain safe space on both sides of the vehicle?

  1. A. Driving near the right edge of every lane
  2. B. Avoiding travel directly alongside other vehicles when possible
  3. C. Driving near the left edge of every lane
  4. D. Depending on convex mirrors to remove every blind spot

Correct answer: B. – Avoiding travel directly alongside other vehicles when possible

Commercial vehicles are wide and often occupy most of a lane, making side-space management especially important. Keep the bus centered and avoid remaining alongside other vehicles when possible. If traffic requires side-by-side travel, create as much separation as possible and move ahead or drop back when a safe opening develops.

Question 2

When should a bus driver check the mirrors?

  1. A. Only after beginning a lane change
  2. B. Only while preparing to stop
  3. C. At fixed 10-second intervals only
  4. D. Regularly during the driving scan and more often during special maneuvers

Correct answer: D. – Regularly during the driving scan and more often during special maneuvers

Drivers should check their mirrors regularly to track traffic beside and behind the bus and to notice vehicles entering blind spots. Additional checks are required before and during lane changes, turns, merges, and close-quarter maneuvers. Mirror checks should be quick, with attention repeatedly returned to the road ahead.

Question 3

Which Class 1 material may be carried in the passenger-occupied space of a bus transporting passengers for hire?

  1. A. Dynamite
  2. B. Small-arms ammunition
  3. C. Detonators
  4. D. Fireworks

Correct answer: B. – Small-arms ammunition

49 CFR prohibits Class 1 explosive materials in the passenger-carrying space of a vehicle transporting passengers for hire, except for small-arms ammunition. Other explosives must not be placed in the passenger compartment. Separate quantity, securement, and location requirements may apply to hazardous materials transported elsewhere on the bus.

Question 4

When may a disabled bus be pushed or towed while passengers remain aboard?

  1. A. Whenever the nearest repair shop is less than one mile away
  2. B. Only when discharging the passengers at the current location would be unsafe
  3. C. Whenever the bus has run out of fuel
  4. D. Only when the towing vehicle has flashing amber lights

Correct answer: B. – Only when discharging the passengers at the current location would be unsafe

The Wyoming CDL manual says not to tow or push a disabled bus with passengers aboard unless getting off at the current location would be unsafe. In that situation, move the bus only to the nearest safe place where passengers can be discharged. Drivers must also follow their employer's procedures for pushing or towing disabled buses.

Question 5

Which equipment combination is specifically required for a commercial passenger bus?

  1. A. A first aid kit and bottled water
  2. B. An automated external defibrillator and oxygen
  3. C. A GPS unit and backup camera
  4. D. A properly rated fire extinguisher and emergency warning devices

Correct answer: D. – A properly rated fire extinguisher and emergency warning devices

Federal regulations require a bus power unit to carry a properly rated fire extinguisher and approved warning devices for a stopped vehicle. Three bidirectional emergency reflective triangles are one approved warning-device option. The other equipment choices do not satisfy these required fire-protection and stopped-vehicle warning categories.

Question 6

Which item is not listed as a bus safety system that must be checked before driving?

  1. A. Service brakes
  2. B. Lights and reflectors
  3. C. Emergency equipment
  4. D. Air-conditioning system

Correct answer: D. – Air-conditioning system

The required bus inspection list includes service and parking brakes, steering, lights, reflectors, tires, mirrors, wheels, and emergency equipment. Air conditioning is not included in that list of safety systems. This does not prevent a carrier from inspecting it for comfort or maintenance purposes, but it is not the correct answer for this CDL checklist question.
