Chapter 4-19 School Pupil Transport School Pupil Transport Vehicle continued “Fixed-route transportation” is the transporting of school pupils on a predetermined daily basis to and from a set location for the length of the pupil’s school year. This includes: • Transporting from home-to-school and school-to-home • Picking up and dropping off at established bus stops • Transporting from home-to-school-to an after-school activity • Transporting to an after-school day care • Transporting from school to school • Or a similar type of daily route The transportation must be provided on a regular basis for the “pupil’s school year” to require a 7D vehicle. The “pupil’s school year’ is the period of time the program is expected to last. The length of the pupil’s semester or summer-school program may constitute the “pupil’s school year.” The “pupil’s school year” will be six weeks long if that is the period of time a school program or camp is expected to last. If it is a week-toweek program the period of the “pupil’s school year” will be a week at a time. The infrequent use of a taxicab to transport a school pupil does not require a 7D vehicle. If a taxicab is used on a regularly scheduled basis to transport a school pupil, the taxicab will be required to meet the standards of a 7D vehicle and the driver will be required to obtain a 7D license. 3/08 4:119
