What is the maximum number of vehicles a stage 1 driver is allowed to escort?

A stage 1 driver is typically permitted to escort no more than two vehicles at a time. This regulation is in place to ensure safety and maintain a manageable flow of traffic in the airside area, which can be congested and requires careful coordination. Allowing a stage 1 driver to escort more than two vehicles could lead to challenges in maintaining control and situational awareness, which is vital in an environment where aircraft and other vehicles are present.

While other options suggest varying limits or conditions for escorting vehicles, the specific restriction to no more than two ensures that the stage 1 driver can effectively communicate and manage the escort process, reducing the risk of accidents and enhancing overall safety on the airside.
