Iowa Admin. Code r. 281-43.27 - Trip inspections
(1) A
pretrip inspection of each school vehicle will be performed and recorded prior
to each trip to determine if any defects or deficiencies exist that may affect
the safety of the vehicle's operation or result in its mechanical breakdown.
The pretrip inspection report is to be signed by the driver and submitted
promptly to the person responsible for the school transportation program. Any
deficiencies that merit an OOS (out of service) rating pursuant to department
of education school bus inspection guidelines must be repaired prior to use of
the vehicle. All other deficiencies should be repaired as soon as possible but
do not bar the use of the vehicle.
(2) A posttrip inspection of the interior of
the school vehicle shall be performed after each trip to ensure no passengers
remain.
