Back to School Safety Reminder: Stopping for School Buses

Back to school! 🚌 Remember to exercise caution around school buses and follow PA's School Bus Stopping Law to keep our kids safe.

When approaching a school bus with its red lights flashing and stop arm extended, motorists MUST STOP at least 10 feet away. This applies to vehicles traveling in both directions, whether behind the bus, meeting the bus, or approaching an intersection where the bus is stopped.

For more information on Pennsylvania's School Bus Stopping Law and the associated penalties, please visit https://www.pa.gov/agencies/dmv/driver-services/school-bus-drivers/school-bus-safety.

Let's work together to ensure a safe and successful school year for our children!

Bus-ted! 🚌 Just a friendly reminder that our school buses have cameras on board, so don't get caught driving around the busses or you'll be fined $300! Drive safe, folks!
