Passing target: 80% (32/40)
You drive in the left lane of a road with two lanes in your direction. Ahead of you, a school bus stops in the right lane. Its red lights flash and its stop sign is out. What must you do?
A approaches in the inner left southbound lane. B is a stopped school bus in the outer right southbound lane, with red warning lamps and an extended STOP arm.
Correct answer: Stop before the bus, and wait until the red lights stop flashing
Why
Children who get on or off a bus can be hard to see, and they do not always watch for traffic. The flashing red lights tell you that children are near, so your stop does not depend on whether you see a child. After the lights go off, keep watching for children, because some may still be near the road.
