Post-trip Inspection
When your route or school activity trip is finished, you should conduct a post-trip inspection of the bus.
You should walk through the bus and around the bus looking for the following:
• Articles left on the bus.
• Sleeping students.
• Open windows and doors.
• Mechanical/operational problems with the bus, with special attention to items that are unique to school buses – mirror systems, flashing warning lamps and stop signal arms.
• Damage or vandalism.
Any problems or special situations should be reported immediately to your supervisor or school authorities.
