Question 1275 in the bank

What should a bus driver check after the passengers boarded the bus and before starting to drive?

  1. That all the passengers paid the fare in full.
  2. That all the passengers are seated.
  3. That the fare is paid in full during the ride.
  4. Correct answer: That the bus doors are closed.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: That the bus doors are closed.

After the passengers have boarded and before the ride starts, the driver must make sure the bus doors are closed. Driving with open doors endangers the passengers, who could fall out or be hurt by the door. Closed doors are a safety condition for starting the ride, so this check is the driver's responsibility.
