STOP when a school bus has its red lights flashing and stop arm extended. If you're approaching from behind or from the opposite direction on the same roadway, you must stop at least 10 feet from the bus and remain stopped until the lights are off and the bus moves again.

The exception is when the bus is on a separate roadway divided by a physical median or barrier, where traffic on the opposite side is not required to stop.

Children can be unpredictable and may cross the road unexpectedly. A few extra seconds of patience can save a life.

Let's make this school year a safe one for every student, bus driver, and family in our community. Please slow down, stay alert, and stop when the bus stops.
