School Zones, Railways & Work AreasStandalone practice
You drive on a four-lane divided highway with a wide grass median. On the other side of the median, a school bus stops with its red lights flashing. What must you do?
A and stopped school bus B are on separate roadways across a wide grass median. Each roadway has two lanes. B has red warning lights and an extended STOP arm.
Correct answer: Continue with care, because you need not stop for a bus on the other roadway
Why
A median or a concrete barrier keeps the children at the bus away from your roadway. On a road without a median or barrier, drivers in both directions must stop. If the bus is on your side of a divided highway, you must stop behind it.
