Driver's License Test Prep
Pennsylvania Practice DUI & Impaired Driving

According to the High Rate DUI table, at what BAC is a school bus driver subject to those penalties?

  1. A.
    .08 or more
  2. B.
    .02 or more Correct
  3. C.
    .10 or more
  4. D.
    .04 or more
The Why

The answer is ".02 or more"

The manual singles out school bus drivers at .02 or more, matching the strict standard applied to under-21 drivers. Commercial drivers generally face .04; school bus drivers face the tighter .02. Option D applies the general commercial-driver .04 limit to a school bus driver, when the manual holds that driver to the stricter .02 threshold instead.

Why the others miss

The traps in the wrong answers

A. .08 or more

The .08 threshold is the general adult DUI level, not the school bus standard. Treats the passenger-car adult DUI limit as the school bus limit.

C. .10 or more

The .10 value is the ordinary-driver High Rate low bound and is not applied to school bus drivers. Reads down the High Rate range and misses the school bus carve-out.

D. .04 or more

The .04 figure is for commercial vehicle drivers generally, and school bus drivers are held to the stricter .02. Applies the general commercial driver limit to a school bus driver.
