A school bus is stopped on the opposite roadway of a divided highway separated by a physical barrier or unpaved median. Must traffic on the separate opposite roadway stop?
A physical median separates blue A's roadway from a school bus with red warning lamps on the opposite roadway.
Correct answer: No, but drivers should continue with caution.
Why
Traffic on a physically separate opposite roadway need not stop for this bus, but must continue with care. The separation must physically divide the roadways, such as a raised or depressed median, barrier or clearly dividing intervening space. Painted lines and a shared center turn lane do not meet that condition.
