c) Appendix A through Illustration B of this Part apply to school buses.
d) The Department's inspection program consists of three different types of inspections performed in either Public or Private Stations. The type of inspection performed is dependent upon the type of vehicle being tested. The three different types of inspections are: School Bus, Special Category and Appendix G.
1) School bus and special category
inspections require the use of authorized safety testing equipment (i.e., wheel
alignment indicator, jack or lift, and brake testing device) in a lane.
Appendix G inspections do not require the use of the above mentioned safety
testing equipment. Throughout this Part, references made to safety testing
equipment requirements apply only to school bus and special category vehicle
inspections.
2) Appendix G
inspections do not require the use of safety testing equipment.
3) Public Stations are required to inspect
all vehicles, including school buses (if authorized), presented to their
Station by the general public. Due to the fact that Public Stations are
required to test either special category vehicles or school buses or both, they
must be equipped with safety testing equipment in a lane. Private Stations
inspect only those vehicles owned and operated by the company which owns the
Station. Most Private Stations do not test school buses or special category
vehicles and those Stations that do not, therefore, are not required to be
equipped with safety testing equipment. Any Private Station that does test
school buses or special category vehicles must be equipped with authorized
safety testing equipment in a lane.
