What is a school bus not allowed to do?

A school bus is not allowed to tow any other vehicle. This restriction is in place primarily due to safety concerns and the unique design of school buses, which are intended exclusively for transporting students. Towing another vehicle could compromise the bus's braking ability, stability, and overall safe operation, especially when transporting young passengers.

In contrast, while school buses can operate on highways, they must follow specific regulations and speed limits. Transporting cargo is also allowed as long as it does not interfere with the safe transport of students. Finally, school buses are designed to carry more than just 10 passengers; they are built to accommodate a significant number of students, often exceeding 20 or more, depending on the bus's capacity.
