4. Place the front wheels in a straight-ahead
position and keep the steeri
ng wheel from
turning. To do so, slide the driver’s seat close
to the steering wheel. W
rap the safety belt
around and through the steering wheel and
then fasten safety belt.
This will assure the bus to
roll in straight
direction and eventually to be stopped by the
tow truck in the eventuality of a mechanical
failure of the tow truck lifting equipment.
