What should you wear when making a walkaround check of your coach?
- A Ear protectors
- B Protective goggles
- C High-visibility vest
- D Face mask
Why this is the answer
You should make yourself clearly visible when you're working outside your vehicle and close to moving traffic.
Why the other answers don't fit
- A
- Ear protectors — Ear protection is for noise, and a walkaround is a quiet job.
- B
- Protective goggles — Goggles are for grinding and chemicals, not for walking round a vehicle.
- D
- Face mask — A mask protects your lungs and does nothing to make you visible in a yard.
