1. School bus should be two-box
According to the age of the students, the new standard makes three classifications for school bus safety technology standards, aiming to integrate and perfect the school bus safety technical standards system, further improve school bus safety, and make school buses more adaptable to China's complicated road transport environment.
The new standard requires that the school bus should be a two-box structure, and at least half of the engine length should be located before the front-most point of the front windshield. The floor height of the school bus should not be less than 700mm. The parts that are easily accessible to the inside of the car body and outside shall not have sharp edges, sharp corners or burrs. The school bus must not have a roof rack outside the car. School buses should be painted to meet the standard appearance of the logo.
2. Before and after the bumper
In order to reduce the degree of damage to school vehicles in front and rear collision accidents, the new standard refers to the American school bus standards, requiring school buses to add front and rear bumpers, and the bumper structure also refers to the American school bus standards.
3. Must verify rollover
Taking into account the relatively poor road conditions in rural and mountain areas, in order to improve the safety of school buses, the new standard requires that the maximum tilting angle of the school bus to the left and right sides be not less than 32°. All kinds of vehicles are subject to rollover accidents. In the event of a rollover accident, ensuring the occupant’s living space is the most basic requirement. Therefore, school bus requirements must be verified by rollover tests.
4. Protect the rescuer
When formulating standards, fully consider the characteristics of the passengers. In emergencies, young children and elementary school children, especially children under 9 years of age, have poorer emergency response capacity than passengers of regular buses. They must rely on the assistance of drivers and caretakers. Therefore, school buses must provide protection for the safety of drivers. . In addition, the school bus must also ensure the smooth passage of accident rescue workers from the structure.

Taking into account the safety of the school bus in daily operations, the new standard stipulates that the fixed form of school bus windows should be fixed in the lower half, or it can be a fully closed window to prevent students from extending their heads out of the window.
In order to meet the evacuation of occupants and rescues outside the vehicle in an emergency, the new standards impose mandatory regulations on the type, location, minimum number, and minimum size of emergency exits.
The new standard also makes it clear that, in addition to the requirements in this standard, school buses should also comply with the applicable provisions of the mandatory standards of other countries and industries, and design and manufacture in accordance with the technical documents and drawings approved by the stipulated procedures.
