Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The regulations on safety conditions in school transport and transport of minors (Royal Decree 443/2001 and the General Vehicle Regulations) establish that authorized vehicles must carry specific signage (sign V-10). When this sign has an additional light device, it must be activated only at the stops of the bus, remaining on for as long as the minors are boarding or getting off the vehicle. Its purpose is to clearly warn the other road users of the imminent risk of child pedestrians crossing the roadway or being in its vicinity. Therefore, it must not be used permanently while driving, nor be limited to night-time only.
