As a school bus driver in Rhode Island, your shift will usually begin early in the morning. You will start by inspecting your school bus to ensure it’s safe and ready for the road. Then you will drive your assigned route, picking up students and dropping them off at school before classes begin. When you’re behind the wheel of a school bus, you must prioritize safety at all times. Even a small mistake can have serious consequences, and that’s why only professional drivers succeed in this field.
The official Rhode Island Commercial Driver License Manual (Rhode Island CDL Handbook 2025) includes an individual chapter on the safe operations of school buses. Please read its contents several times to learn more about student management, special safety considerations, danger zones, and loading and unloading procedures. Your knowledge of this subject will be tested at a DMV office on the official written knowledge test for the School Bus (S) endorsement.
