Chapter: Ch. 11 Owner & Manager
Section: 第2節 使用者
Type: True/False
Difficulty: medium

## Question
Businesses required to designate a safe-driving manager are limited, in all cases, to those using five or more vehicles.

## Correct answer
False

## Explanation
The Rules of the Road require a safe-driving manager for a single vehicle when its passenger capacity is 11 or more (e.g. buses, minibuses), and for five or more of other vehicles. Since the obligation can arise with fewer than five vehicles when the capacity is 11 or more, the phrase "in all cases, five or more" is incorrect.
