Into 1GG1 ADD TO SAFETY NEW REGULATIONS FOR SCHOOL BUSES Hon. H. L Rowntree, Q.C., Min- ister of Transport for Ontario has announced that additional regula- tions governing the operation of school buses had been made by order in council. The Minister said, that the new regulations related to all vehicles' operated by, or under contract to school boards, and vehicles used solely for the purposes of trans- porting children • to and from school. The regulations require that all such vehicles are clearly marked with signs reading, "School Bus". All vehicles, when used solely for transportation of children, shall be painted yellow with black trim. The regulations also require all vehicles carrying ten or more children, to have the following safety equipment at all times. They must have an interior mirror; tire chains or snow tires on rear wheels except duals; a -speedom- eter; the body floor 'constructed in such a way as to prevent the entry of exhaust fumes; two wind- shield wipers and a defrosting de- vice; inside lights; an axe or claw- bar and a fire extinguisher; de- pendable tires; and emergency exits. The Minister added that all ve- hicles used as school buses would require a certificate of mechanical fitness, being filed twice a year. In respect to the requirements for the driver of school buses, Mr. Rowntree said that all applicants must be 21 years of age or over and would be required to pass a special driving test. A higher standard of proficiency would he required in the test, with added emphasis on knowledge of the rules of the road and sign recog- nition. The test would also con- tain references to bus and equip- ment maintenance. The driving test must be taken in an actual school bus. The applicants for school bus operator's licenses would be requir- ed to file a 'medical' certificate of physical fitness and a standard of vis,ion higher than is required for an' ordinary driver. IsheMinister said that he thought these new regulations would do much to ensure the safer Operation of our school buses and the safety of their valuable cargoes.
