New Annual Small Vehicle/Multifunction Bus Operator Written Tests
Enclosed are masters for the following materials:
1. Small Vehicle/Multifunction Bus Operator Written Test #5-2009, and answer key
with references
2. Small Vehicle/Multifunction Bus Operator Written Test #6-2009, and answer key

5. Mountain Driving, Adverse Weather Driving and First Aid information (July, 2009)
The enclosed tests #5 and #6 replace tests #3 and #4 that have been used since 2003.
The new tests are based on the following enclosed reference material:
1. Small Vehicle Operator Rules and Regulations from 301-26, effective July 1, 2009
2. Mountain Driving, Adverse Weather Driving and First Aid information (July, 2009)
Please follow these procedures for the new written tests:
1. Dispose of all older tests, (test #3 and #4), to avoid older tests being taken.
2. The enclosed tests are your master copy. Please reproduce the tests, answer sheet,
and answer key/references for your needs.
3. Please have the drivers mark their answers on the answer sheet and not the test itself.
This will reduce the amount of paper needed to be kept in the file.
4. Make sure the top of the answer sheet is completed. Especially the score and the test
number (5 or 6). A passing score is 84% or higher (4 wrong answers or
fewer).
