DDifficulty 3/5

For school transport subject to Royal Decree 443/2001 between home and school, how must routes and schedules be planned under normal circumstances?

Correct answer

So that time in the vehicle remains below one hour in each direction.

So that children’s time in the vehicle can remain below one hour in each direction. It is not one hour for the combined outward and return journeys. Reaching that maximum duration is provided for only in duly justified exceptional cases. This rule concerns transport within the decree’s scope between home and school, not every outing merely because it carries children. The schedule never justifies inappropriate speed or unsafe driving.
