Background and aims:The objective of this present research is to evaluate external factors
consisting of the recruitment system of the bus driver, the speedometer condition, the speed limit
during the day and night and the longest shift, the production year of the bus, the amount of the
paid-in money, the trips per day and the income system as the prediction for the safety driving of the
City Transport bus drivers in East Java province-Indonesia.Methodology:A quantitative approach
with the analytical observational type and a cross sectional study design was employed.A systemic
random sampling was employed in this present research to take the buses entering into the terminal
each here where the data on the drivers were determined as the sample.Analysis: The variables of
“turning off the speedometer during the driving activities, and “using a bus with theproduction year
before 1990 are the predictive factors causing bad safety driving behavior among the Inter-city bus
drivers in East Java province.Conclusion: From the results of the analysis, it is known that all
variables from the external condition contributed to the safety driving behavior.
