Can Xinjiang department-level cadres drive buses?

Yes, but by region. Changji city doesn't allow buses to run.

Whether a department-level cadre has a bus depends on the level of the unit. Unit-level cadres at or above the county level do not deserve buses. The department-level units will be equipped with buses. Changji city clearly stipulates that leading cadres are not allowed to drive buses without authorization for any reason; It is not allowed to learn driving skills by bus; It is not allowed to borrow vehicles from enterprises, subordinate units and others and drive without authorization. For leading cadres in special industries, if they really need to drive a bus because of their work, they must hold their own driver's license. With the consent of the leading group of the unit, the main leaders of the unit sign opinions and build cards for registration, and report them to the discipline inspection organ for the record.
