According to the draft, the government will adopt a license system for school bus operation.

　　Vehicles that are up to school bus standards and with a unified appearance will be first in line to obtain approval from education authorities, and the draft also requires buses to register at the traffic administrative agencies before they can be used as school buses.

　　Instead of compulsory annual safety checks, the draft would require school bus owners to renew their safety qualifications every six months.

　　Drivers should also check the safety condition of the buses before each commute, the draft said.

　　The draft asks schools and the school bus service providers to intensify safety management and maintenance and assign special staff on buses to look after students on board.
