2023 School Bus Pre-Trip on a 2017 IC Conventional 

Thank you for your kind words and comment! I’m thrilled to learn the videos have been helpful for you!

@@SchoolBusSass ALL Because of U💋

You did the work, I was cheering you on from Ohio! Congratulations and continued success to you. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Ohio wants the governor cut off test done first

Alex, I love that you are fascinated with school bus driving! I will be cheering for your success to become a driver one day! :) You have two outstanding drivers, Alex! :)

I ride a handycap BBV

Hi Aaron, perhaps you could make a return to school bus driving???

Ours is changing as well… still only 30 minutes though

Yes, the noise suppression button cuts all power to fans, heaters, defrosters, and radios, for a railroad crossing.

The examiners want the brake test completed first, then, they it is my understanding that the rest can be done in no particular order. I don’t know exactly why, but, possibly to expedite the testing process for the examiners. If you fail the brake test, the pretrip ends at that point. But that is purely speculation on my part.

Thanks, Cody! It’s a great, old(a relative term) bus.

@@SchoolBusSass hey I love these videos I’m the one from the premiere a few months back this is awesome what you do you saved my driver from not losing her license because she forgot some stuff don’t ever stop making videos!

In Ohio,the examiner’s would like you to begin with the air brake test. Static(no pressure on the service brake) , heavy pressure (3psi), then fanning for the emergency light and sound features (above55) and the parking brake to set itself (between 20-40). Make sure you have at least 100 lbs of pressure in your air tanks, before starting the brake tests. Parking brake and service brake can be done when the tanks rebuild pressure. In the video, a safe start is shown first, as well as parking brake and service brake tests. They will accept as shown, until further changes, to the pre-trip, are implemented. Potentially, around August or September.

@@SchoolBusSass thank you I like the order you have shown, it is easier for me, plus you can start discussing the interior while the air is rebuilding in the tanks

Indeed… Thanks for the feedback

@SchoolBusSass you're welcome. This helped a lot with my recertification. I work at Valley View. 😊😊😊 keep up the videos. Love them!

Oaoala Q

Correct… They are accepting this order until all of the pretrip changes are mandated.

Those particular items are no longer required items for the OH pretrip exam. . Slack adjusters on all new busses automatically adjust…still, there would be no more than an inch play if tugged on.

Hi Garwood, the majority of OBI’s should have been informed at the most recent series of OBI preservice meetings. Testing centers are also supposed to give some leeway until all of the changes are published in the CDL manuals and training is completed at all third party test sites. Your OBI can contact your local test location for details or updates. I recommend state run sites over third party sites. Tests cost less and are far more consistent.

Greetings, Domingo...thank you!

Glad you liked it!

Did not forget… the three items mentioned are not required elements of the pretrip for the state of Ohio

Yes you do

@@SchoolBusSass kinda weird isn't it. Like doing it twice

Tailpipe is part of the exhaust system.

We don’t have any other options

Terrific, I'll be there. :)

Watch the video, as often as a child would watch their favorite Disney movie. Also,much of the pretrip is repetitive phrasing, and lastly, do the pretrip in person with someone timing you, so you know where your focus needs to be.

Not going to happen…

@@SchoolBusSass buon giorno signora therese scusami non manderò più messaggi non voglio sembrare fastidioso ho capito che non vuoi tenere mai tutta accelerata molto forte forte il bus ma non fa niente scusami non ti manderò più messaggi ciao

Ww

Depends on the state…the changes will take some getting used to and adjusting in pretrip process. Good luck going forward.

@@SchoolBusSass I’m in Ohio and thank you. I had a state inspector there also. I’ve heard a lot of bad things about him and he didn’t disappoint!!

Me too

I like school busses there because of the state id

Yep, only factory welds.
