Welcome to the Market Weighton Scout Group Minibuses

 

  

We currently have three minibuses,

      One 15 seater (including driver) Ford Transit long wheel base, with towbar.

      One 14 seater (including driver) Ford Transit long wheel base, with towbar.

There are NO Tacograph fitted to any of them.

Which are available to book out to Scout and Guide Groups and non-profit making groups which hold a valid Section 19 Permit.

The mini buses are insured for any person over 30 years old with at least 2 years driving experience who have NO points/convictions on their current driving licence and have no claims/accidents in the last 5 years. (section 5 user policy).

Any person wishing to drive who has convictions or has been involved in accidents during the last 5 years must be named on our insurance policy, the additional premium cost & admin charge for this will be passed on to the group booking the minibus.

To drive them you need a D1 entitlement on your licence. If you are driving on a voluntary basis for social purposes by a non-commercial body you can drive the 15 seater on a car licence (B).

The Minibus also has full UK breakdown cover. (section 5 user policy).

The minibus is equipped with; first aid kit, fire extinguisher, de-icer scraper & squeegee, Warning triangle, Spare bulbs, Tow Rope, Dust pan & brush, Torch, Map Book, High visibility coats, Folder of Journey & Maintance Sheets and Drivers Pack.
