On a two-lane road with no median, a school bus coming toward you stops in the other lane with its red lights flashing. You stop 30 feet away. Children cross in front of the bus and reach the sidewalk on your side, but the red lights still flash. What should you do?
A is stopped opposite a school bus on a two-lane road with no median. The bus’s red lamps remain lit, and two children are now on the sidewalk on A’s side.
Correct answer: Stay stopped until the bus starts to move or its red lights stop flashing
Why
Children who get on or off a school bus may cross the road in front of the bus or run back for something they dropped, and drivers often cannot see them. That is why the rule covers traffic from both directions and depends on the bus, not on what you see. After the bus moves or its lights stop, drive on slowly and keep watching for children.
