Following complaints about VVS rider safety: district stresses driver adherence to rules and regulations

Following the safety concerns raised over VVS riders, authorities highlight that drivers are obligated to adhere to established guidelines and laws.

In the northern region of the Ludwigsburg district, the rules that govern bus operations are clear and well-defined. Contrary to popular belief, the speed limits on bus routes are not regulated by the contract between the district and the bus operator. Instead, they are governed by the Road Traffic Regulations.

These regulations are binding for the driving staff operating in this region. They are expected to adhere to all the stipulations outlined in the Road Traffic Regulations, including seat belt usage, which is also regulated by these regulations and not the contract between the district and the bus operator.

The contract between the district and the bus operator does not specify any additional regulations beyond those mentioned in the Road Traffic Regulations and the General Terms and Conditions of Transport of the Stuttgart Public Transport and Tariff Association (VVS). This means that the bus operator's driving staff must also comply with the VVS's terms and conditions while operating in the northern region of the Ludwigsburg district.

One such stipulation is the prohibition of making personal phone calls during working hours. However, the driving staff are permitted to use a hands-free device for necessary business conversations. In case of conflicts between passengers, the driving staff have the discretion to either ask the passengers to leave the vehicle or call the police.

It is important to note that the name of a VVS bus driver working in the northern part of the Ludwigsburg district is not publicly available. The search results do not provide this information.

In conclusion, the rules that govern bus operations in the northern region of the Ludwigsburg district are clearly defined, with the Road Traffic Regulations and the VVS's General Terms and Conditions of Transport playing a crucial role. The driving staff are expected to follow these regulations diligently to ensure a safe and orderly journey for all passengers.
