    Minibus or coach Module 4 Driver CPC questions and answers The Initial Driver CPC qualification was introduced into the bus and coach industry on September 10th 2008. Exactly one year before Driver CPC came into force for the commercial goods (HGV) industry (September 10th 2009). Part of acquiring the PCV Initial Driver CPC qualification means having to pass the module 4 examination. Module 4 is the practical associated knowledge test that is carried out at a DSA approved test centre. There is no driving required (suffice for the rolling brake check.) Students will need a DSA approved vehicle to demonstrate their answers. This test is all about scenarios a professional PCV driver may encounter in his or her working life. It includes PCV drivers legal obligations (vehicles checks, not overloading, pre-use checking), as well as checking for illegal immigrants, dealing with emergency situations etc. The Module 4 exam will last approximately 20-30 minutes and the DSA examiner will ask approximately 5-6 questions. To be successful you must attain at least 75% for each question and at least 80% overall. This post looks at the possible questions you may be given for your minibus or coach Driver CPC module 4 examination. If you need HGV Module 4 questions and answers we recommend your visit our Module 4 HGV Driver CPC page. Module 4 requires competence of skills and knowledge in the following areas. Carrying passengers with due regard for safety rules and proper vehicle use. Ensuring passenger, comfort, safety and security.

  • The Influence of Passenger Load, Driving Cycle, Fuel Price and Different
    Transportation https://doi.org/10.1007/s11116-018-9925-0 The infuence of passenger load, driving cycle, fuel price and diferent types of buses on the cost of transport service in the BRT system in Curitiba, Brazil Dennis Dreier1 · Semida Silveira1 · Dilip Khatiwada1 · Keiko V. O. Fonseca2 · Rafael Nieweglowski3 · Renan Schepanski3 © The Author(s) 2018 Abstract This study analyses the infuence of passenger load, driving cycle, fuel price and four diferent types of buses on the cost of transport service for one bus rapid transit (BRT) route in Curitiba, Brazil. First, the energy use is estimated for diferent passenger loads and driving cycles for a conventional bi-articulated bus (ConvBi), a hybrid-electric two- axle bus (HybTw), a hybrid-electric articulated bus (HybAr) and a plug-in hybrid-electric two-axle bus (PlugTw). Then, the fuel cost and uncertainty are estimated considering the fuel price trends in the past. Based on this and additional cost data, replacement scenarios for the currently operated ConvBi feet are determined using a techno-economic optimisa- tion model. The lowest fuel cost ranges for the passenger load are estimated for PlugTw amounting to (0.198–0.289) USD/km, followed by (0.255–0.315) USD/km for HybTw, (0.298–0.375) USD/km for HybAr and (0.552–0.809) USD/km for ConvBi. In contrast, C the coefcient of variation ( v ) of the combined standard uncertainty is the highest for C PlugTw ( v : 15–17%) due to stronger sensitivity to varying bus driver behaviour, whereas C it is the least for ConvBi ( v : 8%).

Stedall www.ttmg.org © October 26, 2009. Center on Globalization, Governance & Competitiveness, Duke University 2 Summary Public transit substantially reduces fuel use and greenhouse gas emissions, making it a wise public investment in a new, carbon-constrained economy. A typical passenger car carrying one person gets 25 passenger miles per gallon, while a conventional bus at its capacity of 70 (seated and standing) gets 163 passenger miles per gallon. These fuel savings yield commensurate cuts in CO2 emissions. A passenger car carrying one person emits 89 pounds of CO2 per 100 passenger miles, while a full bus emits only 14 pounds. In addition, these benefits of conventional transit buses are further enhanced by a growing number of alternative options known as “green buses,” including electric hybrid, all-electric, and other advanced technologies.
