🚌 School Bus Safety Reminders 🚌

Updated: Nov 14


Let's work together to ensure the safety of our community's children!

Important Safety Tips

  • Give Space: School buses need extra room for wide turns and sudden stops.

  • Stay Clear: Avoid blocking bus lanes or creating obstacles in their path.

  • Drive Safely: Respect bus operations to help prevent accidents and keep traffic moving smoothly.

Know Pennsylvania’s School Bus Stopping Law

  • STOP when you meet or overtake a stopped school bus with red lights flashing and the stop arm activated.

  • SLOW DOWN when approaching a bus with flashing amber lights and be prepared to stop.

  • STOP at least 10 feet away from a stopped school bus.

  • WAIT until the red lights stop flashing, the stop arm is withdrawn, and all children have reached safety before moving.

🚨 REMEMBER: Violating these laws can result in significant penalties and, more importantly, endanger lives.

Together, we can keep our roads safe for kids and drivers! 🚸
