To drive a school bus, a driver must have no more than how many demerit points?

  1. Four

  2. Six

  3. Eight

  4. Ten

The correct answer is: Six

Drivers of school buses must have no more than six demerit points in order to drive a school bus. This is because school bus drivers are held to a higher standard than other drivers, as they are responsible for the safety and well-being of numerous children. Having a limit of only four demerit points (choice A) or eight demerit points (choice C) would not adequately ensure that school bus drivers are operating their vehicles safely. Having a limit of ten demerit points (choice D) would also not be sufficient, as it allows for a significant number of infractions before a driver's license is revoked. Therefore, choice B is the correct answer as it strikes a balance between holding school bus drivers accountable and allowing for a small margin of error.
