You meet a school bus stopped with red lights flashing on an undivided road. What must you do?
Blue car A approaches from the opposite direction to meet stopped yellow school bus B on an undivided two-lane road. Silver car C follows B. The bus faces left with its stop arm extended; a detail view shows red overhead warning lamps. The heading states that the red lights are flashing. No stopping halos or routes are shown.
Correct answer: Stop, and wait until the bus moves or its driver signals
Why
On an undivided road, traffic approaching a school bus from either direction must stop before reaching it when it has stopped with red lights flashing to receive or discharge passengers. Wait until the bus resumes motion or its operator signals you to proceed, and keep checking for children. The mere number of lanes does not create Maine’s physical-barrier exception.
