An optional video camera may be installed provided that it complies with the following:

1. (a) The camera must be installed inside a non-flammable rigid container with corners rounded to not less than three-eighths (3/8) of an inch.
2. (b) The container shall be mounted at the forwardmost position at the center front or right front of the bus interior, depending on style of bus, such that its size and installation location does not encroach on the headroom of the entrance or aisle pathway for students nor may it limit the ingress or egress by the driver to or from his or her seat, such that he or she would readily bump his or her head.
3. (c) The attachment of the container to the bus shall be secure for the weight supported and any attachment brackets shall be kept as close as practicable to the container with corners rounded if extending beyond the container. The container shall be held firmly closed with a positive latching mechanism.
4. (d) The outermost glazing material of the container must be safety glass or plastic material unless mounted within an existing compartment with its own safety glazing.
