You have more potential for shielded fires pointing to EXII. We know OHI works with car parking.
You have potential for more plastics in the construction of the bus in the fiberglass bodies so that would point to EX I or II. So I could see something different than an OHII.

FM Global Data Sheet 3-26 classifies it as Hazard Category 3, or 0.30/2,500, which is equivalent to Extra-Hazard Group 1. This would put it in the same category as aircraft hangers, particle board manufacturing plants, and print shops that use low flash point inks. Seems excessive to me. David Bitton, ing.
