If it's being operated for-hire, you need a CDL with a passenger endorsement in any state. In any other instance, you need to get a letter of determination from the NCDOT. Any vehicle designed to transport more than 15 passengers (including the driver) requires a CDL with a passenger endorsement.
i believe so.
CDL... Commercial driver license.. Think about it.
A CDL is not required until the capacity of the bus is greater than 15 people (including the driver).
In and of itself, no. Some school bus drivers are retirees or otherwise unemployed persons looking for a little supplemental income. Some are contractors, who may be contracted to drive vehicles owned by the school district, or privately owned buses contracted to the school district. Some may be full-time employees who take on driving the bus as an additional duty, e.g., custodians, mechanics, etc.
Either drive in a private owned bus, or fly if it is a long distance.
No... to drive a bus unsupervised, you need an unrestricted, full-on CDL license, with a passenger endorsement. You may not legally operate a bus - loaded or empty - otherwise.
Obviously a computer needs a bus as none of them can drive!
Class C CDL with School Bus endorsement.
A CDL is not required until the passenger capacity reaches 16 persons or more (this includes the driver).
You can walk, cycle, drive, or use bus or train. You can even travel by canal but you can't fly, except privately.
If it is licensed by the jurisdiction as a passenger carrying vehicle for hire - yes, provided that, the marked stop is on a public street and not in a privately owned bus terminal on private property.
It depends on the makeup of the neighborhood. If the neighborhood is privately owned by a home owners association, the governing documents will define what is common area, and thus owned by all owners in the association. Otherwise, your local tax assessor's office has a record of who owns the property where the school bus stops.
