Presentation of the Air Brake Test on a 2011 IC Conventional Style School Bus (Pre-Trip Inspection), using the acronym "SALSSP", in Richmond Hill, Georgia.
S: Safe Start
A: Air Leak Test
L: Low Air Pressure Warning Test
S: Spring Brake
S: Service Brake
P: Parking Brake
The air brake is applied, when the yellow diamond button is pulled. It is released when the same button is pushed.
** At approximately 120 psi, the airdryer pops. It sends bursts of air back to governor to stop the compressor from pumping air. **
this is one of the best to watch and do its always good to have a cdl license in your pocket
Thank you Mr Bellemare for this video. I have been driving school bus for 9 years and the company that I worked for didn't require the air brakes endorsement as their buses were all hydraulic. I am with a new company now and all but a few are air brakes. I took my test on Monday, and along with a "killer" pre-trip, I aced the air brake test from watching your video. I even watched it while practicing and was able to remember the steps, psi info, and correct terminology. Thanks again for the awesome, informative, and extremely helpful video.
+Lilredxx00 Thank you so much for watching and congratulations on your air brake endorsement. I am glad the video helped.
I personally think that all authorized heavy vehicles should be equipped with air brakes.
Thanks JJ I earned my California SCHOOL BUS CERTIFICATE TODAY in LA County. .... Just like Mr. ESPINOZA I USED A LOT FROM YOUR VIDEOS IN MY TRAINING. I APPRECIATE IT! !!
Congratulations. Way to go. I hope you enjoy your new career as much as I do.
@@jjbellemare3732 I love it ! Thanks again .
What a great video!!!!! I love the acronym to help remember what to do for the tests. Bravo!!!!!
Thanks for your feedback and thanks for watching, Brian Gammage.
@@jjbellemare3732 just an update... I passed!! Thank you!!
Brian Gammage : Awesome! Congratulations!!!
Yes
Thank you for this! I have my yearly pre-trip test tomorrow and this was so perfect to watch and review...
Hi, Elizabeth Ann. How did your test go? I hope it went well. Thanks for watching.
Did you pass it? You are working as a bus driver?
Very helpful training
Thanks for watching, Gavriel Green. I am glad you enjoy.
Ha. I hadnt done an airbrake test in about a year. I always come back to your video. Easy peasy. Thank you!
Thank you so much JJ
Thanks for watching, Rosa Ortiz.
Thanks
You are welcome. Thanks for watching.
Good job
Thanks you, Imran Abbasi. I am glad you enjoyed.
He it explain it with such a delight .. thank you so much... 💓
You are welcome, Asapkitty. Thanks for watching.
this guy makes the air bakes test look so easy.awesome video though he went in depth good stuff
Thank you so much for watching. I am very humbled by your praise. It means so much to me.
+JJ Bellemare no problem sir keep up the good work with the buses.do you know if the air brakes test the same for every state or does it vary?
Will do. You are welcome.
Excellent question. While the air brake test roughly follows a similar format no matter what the circumstances are, it may vary slightly depending on what state, what district, what training program or what type of vehicle you are tested on.
For instance, a tractor-trailer trainee tested in Indiana will follow a script and sequence that is a bit different than a school bus trainee tested in Georgia. The air pressure level at which the airdryer pops might be approximately 125-130 psi instead of 120 psi. The inspection of the parking and service brakes might lead to the air brake test in one case and conclude the same operation in the other.
I would encourage trainees to review guidelines carefully, so they do not stumble on one minor detail. It is important that they be on the same sheet of music as the examiner, since any discrepancy in the way they perform the air brake test is considered an automatic failure. That said, the overall logic and principles behind air brake tests remains the same, no matter where you are or what vehicle you drive.
Thanks again for your feedback. It is much appreciated.

Sr. I want to thank you for creating a channel dedicated to the preparation of how to identify the equipment and parts, to operate it and care for a School Bus. I have learned so much from you and have succeeded .
you make it look so easy yet I am having a lot of problem learning the air brakes inspection.
Thanks for watching, Marvin Martinez. The key for learning the air brake test to the point where it feels and looks like it is easy is to practice.
I remember of this basic computer class I once took in college: during the entire semester, students did not get more than twenty minutes of hand-on practice on the keyboard. It was such a waste of time.
Do you have an opportunity to practice the test on a school bus? The more time your instructor allows for you to practice, the better it is. When I attended trucking school, another trainee and I practiced the air brake test every single time we had a break, one day. We must have performed it a dozen times each. Before we knew it, it felt like it was easy.
Keep us posted on your progress. I wish you the best.
He's a "wild and crazy guy"!
Thanks for watching, Westcoast Johnny.
the best video on TH-cam about the air brakes make a lot of sense . good job hope I get my class b.
Thanks for watching, Dormaine Pounall. What state are you from? I wish you the best on your test. Please, let us know how it goes. Regards.
Bravo! I'm experienced (class A and B) but this crazy new company is requiring an air/pre-trip this monday. It's a great job so I have to do it. Kudos dude!
JJ, thank you for posting this demonstration of the Air Brake Test. Your explanation was quality instruction. Take care.
Thank you so much for watching, Patrick McCormack. You are welcome.
You would make a very good professor J.J. ....! Very interesting this video...! Hope to see you in Shawinigan...Soon...!
Hi I just want to say thank you for this video, it has helped me pass my cdl test, very good in detail on the demonstration on the air brakes, thank you very much..
Mr. Andrew Rothkoft:
Thanks for your comment.
I successfully tested twice in my career, as a candidate / trainee (class A - 18 wheeler in Indiana & school student + passenger endorsements in Georgia).
While air brakes might account for a small portion of the total score, failing (any detail of) air brakes in Georgia (& Indiana) is an automatic failure (setback?) overall.
I genuinely appreciate your input. Yet, I spend a lot of time with new drivers emphasizing a strong command of air brakes. In Georgia & Indiana, it is not optional. It is a must.
That said, every state, county, driving school, examiner... has his / her / its own spin and / or set of nuances, when it comes to testing guidelines. In your state, messing up air brakes might cause limited damages.
With all due respect, I will not advise trainees to minimize to importance of air brakes in Georgia.
hi jj
@@EstrellaGarcia Hello. Thank for watching!
great video, i share your videos with other guys in my fire department to use on our fire engine airbrake tests.
Thanks for watching. I am glad that you find the videos helpful!
Good job man. you sound like you're straight out of the London catacombs too!
Thanks for watching. My accent is French Canadian. I never visited the London catacombs. Maybe someday.
I was told not to press service while parking break applied because the combined force can be damaging.
Hi, Scott Swinheart. All I know is that on more recent school bus models, the feature will NOT let you release your parking brake without appying the service brake. It just won't happen. Thanks for watching and thanks for your input.
Good video, remember to chalk the rear wheels if you're on an incline.
Good point. Thanks for watching, Alex Lopez.
Don't forget to put on your seat belts guys
Anthony H you don’t see he already put on his seat belt
Bus drivers trained very well..
Hi, Kyle Craig. Thanks for your interest.
I no longer have the video that you mentioned, where Ms. Beverly presents parts of the pre-trip. She is an outstanding trainer, indeed.
I had to come with my own material. Since each district has a few minor differences in the pre-trip, it gave me an opportunity to adjust the content.
I want to know the parts as well what video explains the pre trip

Intéressant de constater que la sécurité est toujours une priorité, merci J.j Bellemare
Nice to notice that security is always a priority...
Vidéo très intéressante sur le fonctionnement des autobus scolaires. Félicitations !
Ou kondi yo tou
Bravo J.j. La Mauricie est très fière de toi!
Très très interessant,j'aime beaucoup cette vidéo,merci JJ Belemarre
3 psi sitting. No more than 2 psi loss with foot break pressed.. Then fan the breaks
There are slight differences from state to state and from vehicle to vehicle (school bus vs 18-wheeler). Good point. I always tell people to verify with their instructor for details. Thanks for watching, Anthony Demmons.
thank you. I hope I can remember the letters, this part of the test scares me more than anything! you made it seem so easy.
Thank you for viewing, Cindy Peters. What state will you test in? I wish you the best.
@@jjbellemare3732 I took the test in Texas sorry just now saw this, I passed the test it was 5 years ago LOL but it was pretty simple
excellent tutorial fantastic job taken notes for myself thanks champ
Thank you so much for watching and taking time to leave a heartfelt comment. I genuinely appreciate. I wish you told us about your journey... What state? When? At any circumstance, I wish you the best. :)
in n.y. practicy learning this technique like its 2 nature,the back of my hand such details thanks for all the video tutorials you do 👊👍✌
Cool. I spent one summer driving a yellow bus in Northeast Pennsylvania and NY's Southern Tier. I had a blast. What a fascinating and friendly area.
I wish you the best in your new career. Please, keep us posted and let us know when your get your CDL. :)
will do champ
Im showing y'all how fun it is to drive a bus!!!
Thanks for watching.
where are you brothers from SNL? wild and crazy guys
LOL Thanks for watching.
"Because....we are some Wild and Crazy Guys!!!!.....ha ha....this dude talks just like Steve Martin in that old Russian-Swinger's Sketch.....
Ha, ha, ha. Thanks for watching.
I finally found an accurate video 👍🏿
THANK YOU had a good test because of you Thanks so much...
Thank you so much! you're the only video I've seen that made it so easy
You are welcome, Falon Smalls. Thanks for the positive feedback and thanks for watching.
super ca, bravo J.j Bellemare
Thank you for this video. you explained everything so clear and helped me to better understand how the air brakes perform.
You are welcome, Cricket Lee. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much! So helpful!
Very good mr
At approximately 120 psi, the airdryer pops. It sends bursts of air back to governor to stop the compressor from pumping air.
Excellent video! :)
I have watched this 5 times and now I have an understandind how to do my break test...
Thank you for watching.
What about the air governor cut in test? The air governor should cut in at around 90 PSI and should stop around 120 PSI. He did somewhat explain the cut out.
Thanks for watching, Mark Gloverville. At approximately 120 psi, the airdryer pops. It sends bursts of air back to governor to stop the compressor from pumping air. I would like to emphasize the word approximately. Depending on the vehicle, the pressure at which the governor cuts the air may vary from 115 psi to 125 psi or even more. I generally advise new drivers in training to stick to a script (for instance a 120 psi) and focus only on significant discrepancies. Certain states, districts or driving schools have new drivers demonstrate the cut in (approximately 90 psi, indeed), as well as the cut out (approximately 120 psi). Others do not.
What a wild and crazy guy
Anthony Demmons : Is it good or bad?! :). Thanks for watching.
JJ Bellemare u sound like SnL's Wild and Crazy guys. Isn't the air leak test 3 Parts? The first part being no parking brake or service brake applied you should not lose 3 pounds of pressure in a minute, the second part apply the foot brake and hold it for a minute and not lose 2 pounds of square pressure in that minute. Then Fanning the brakes until the buzzer sounds and the parking brake releases?
this video is great !
Florida bro I watch this video the lease little chance I get .that what am doing right now over on over...need to get it.
This is great. I am glad that I can be of any help. Please, remember that there might be minor differences between the way Florida and Georgia test new drivers and keep us posted. I wish you the best.
Très intéressant monsieur Bellemare! Merci!
Thanks dude
You are welcome. Thanks for watching, Fred Hall!
Thank you very much I'm sure this help me out

u r awesome
Congratulations, Joe Hinojos!!! Welcome to the school-bus driver community.
It will be nice if you update this video telling what should be on and off before you perform ech test.
Thank you very much
Hi, Tina Tolbert. You're welcome. Thank you for watching.
Good job JJ DONE WELL
Thank you for watching and leaving feedback, Anthony H.
Thank you.
Awesome thank you
Thanks for watching, Mr. Donald Johnson!
@@jjbellemare3732 thank you
Je n'y connais pas grand chose mais mes amis me disent que c'est génial
Good job 👍🏽
Thanks for watching, Jose Rosendo!
JJ may I recommend a suggestion? At 4:12 you say not to worry about the brakes. I have had older buses that pop automatically but when the bus is started and the air compressor is running it the diamond valve leaks slightly and the bus has rolled. I always recommend to pull the parking brake as an extra precaution to ensure it is engaged fully. Otherwise Spot On! Nice job. :)
Thanks for watching. (I just became a subscriber of your channel.)
I will definitely look into it.
Actually, there are updated versions of this video. This is the most recent one: th-cam.com/video/VZxtf6MhEHw/w-d-xo.html
I always like to improve the material that I put out there. Thanks.
I must also say that everybody I train takes the CDL test on my assigned school bus (#113 - 2011 Conventional-Style Intl Corp.) Nobody is thrown under the bus. Everybody succeeds.
good job
Thank you for watching and leaving positive feedback.
you are welcome ;)
Très intéressant, bon vidéo. Bravo!

This bus driver kind of sounds like Christopher Walken
Hi, Rob Brenton. If you knew how many people told me that I sound like Christopher Walken. It must be true. Thanks for watching!
I think he's a Cajun
un ti gars de Shawinigan ce J.j Bellemare. un homme tres cultivé

Count Dracula teaching us to do an air brake test
Ha, ha! Thank you for watching.
Isn't it hands off the steering when doing the 5mph test to show that it is a straight stop, no pulling either side?
what happened to your original video of the lady showing you how to pre trip a school bus? i love watching and learning from that video. ... i was going to revisit it several times in the next few months!!! please repost it or send me the video. .. pm for my email address
Merci !
Hi do you have anything on section 14: Special Requirements for Texas commercial Motor Vehicles?
Thanks for watching, Elizabeth.
I am not familiar with Section 14. Are you referring to the Texas CDL training manual?
Either way, I think that all of us will benefit from becoming more knowledgeable about the subject.
Please, give me further details and let me know how I can help.
Thank again.
Hi, Stu.
Thanks for watching. :)
Shawinigan est une terre riche..........J.J.Bellemare en est la preuve
How do you stop smoothly without the bus jolting?
Hello! I'm going to take the skills road test in NYC for an L restriction removal. My question is, what will I need to know for this test? Is it just a pre trip and break test and driving?
Testing brakes/ knowledge of brakes only accounts for 5 points on test.
The air brake test is a deal breaker. You will not get credit for your pre-trip, unless you pass the air brake test.
GO HABS
I love ur videos. I'm going to take my test soon. I can't remember steps or when to turn engine on or off or parking brake. I'm ready to give up.help
Thanks for watching, Vincenza Perriano. How did the test go?
hi
Oh i see what i've missed to get the job on busses where i live ...just kidding ...i'm to old for the job ..:-)
Guy Bell
Exxxxelente!
+Yaquelin ArrindellI am very glad that you have enjoyed the presentation. There is a lot of dedication in these videos, so your praise means a lot to me.
Are you suppose to hear the governor
Thank you ! )))I trying to get P-endorsment right now. And I have question. My mentor said when I make service brake test I not must keep weel. Weel is free. And when I apply service brake (push pedal) I check also bus not moves left or right. If bus stop and not move left or right that means servise brake works properly. Is it true ??? I mean I not suppose keep weel in my hands when I make service brake test ? (sorry about my not perfect English)! ))
+Ivan Ivanovich Thanks for watching, Ivan.
Even though states and / or districts conduct the air brake test in the same manner for the most part, nearly each of them has minor differences (number of psi, order of the sequence, etc.)
Keeping your hands away from the steering wheel as you test the service and parking brakes makes perfect sense, indeed. Your mentor is right. It will give you an opportunity to confirm that the vehicle does not hang from side to side, as a result of you applying the brakes, and that they work properly.
What state are you testing from?
+JJ Bellemare Got it ! Thank you ! i am from Los Angeles, CA
+Ivan Ivanovich Cool! I wish you the best with the endorsements. Please, keep with posted.
JJ Bellemare do these steps apply to shuttle bus service as well
It depends. Is the shuttle bus you are referring to equipped with air brakes? If so, then yes. Thanks for watching.
is the parking break the emergency break/hand break?
Thanks for watching. Yes. Emergency brake, parking brake, spring brake: same device. The yellow diamond-shaped push-pull knob controls it.
I'm testing in Louisiana so it's a little different
Cool. I lived in South Louisiana in 1998-2005 and loved it. Greetings from Coastal Georgia and best wishes on your test. Please, keep us posted on how it goes.
Is it bad the when it pops the burst of air jump scares me
Thanks for watching.
All that is wrong way
😶😶😶😐😕🤦🏽♂️
