Certain school buses fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 222 u2013 School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection. The seatback material may not meet the leg protection zone impact criteria of the Standard, which could increase the risk of injury during a vehicle crash. Correction: Dealers will install polystyrene blocks in the lower outside corners of each seat (beneath the seat upholstery).
