We have zero tolerance when it comes to violations! Drivers, when school buses display red flashing lights and/or an extended stop arm, you must stop. Additionally, drivers face a more enhanced criminal charge for passing a school bus when a child is present outside the bus. Please, stay alert and slow down! |
