## What is wrong

Certain vehicles fail to comply with CMVSS 217 \- Bus Window Retention, Release and Emergency Exits.  Vehicle alterations resulted in impaired access to the rear doors in the event of the need for emergency egress where the side door may be inoperative.  Correction: Rear bulkhead will be reworked so as to provide access to the rear door of the vehicle in a way intended by the original manufacturer.
