You drive behind a school bus on a two-lane road. The yellow lights near the top of the bus start to flash, and its red lights are not on yet. What should you do?
A follows school bus B on a two-lane road. The bus’s upper yellow warning lamps flash while its red lamps remain off; an enlarged rear-lamp detail makes the lamp positions visible.
Correct answer: Slow down and get ready to stop, because the bus is about to stop for children
Why
The bus driver turns on the yellow lights as a warning before stopping for passengers. When the red lights flash, traffic from both directions must stop before reaching the bus. Most injuries happen to children who cross the road after they leave the bus, so watch the roadside as you drive on.
