When a school bus is stopped with its red lights flashing, what is required of you?

When a school bus is stopped with its red lights flashing, stopping until the bus proceeds is a requirement aimed at ensuring the safety of children boarding or disembarking from the bus. The red lights serve as a warning signal that children may be nearby, and these regulations are put in place to prevent accidents. By stopping, you contribute to the safe environment for children as they enter or exit the bus, as they may not be aware of their surroundings or may suddenly cross the road.

This law is strictly enforced, and failure to comply can result in significant penalties. Stopping until the bus is moving again indicates that drivers understand and respect the safety needs of students, reinforcing the importance of vigilance in school zones and areas where children are present.
