Bus Safety Tips

Parents:

  • Yellow Flashing Lights: indicate the bus is preparing to stop to load or unload children. Slow down and prepare to stop.
  • Red Flashing Lights, Extended Stop Arm: indicate the bus has stopped and children are getting on or off. Stop and wait until the red lights stop flashing, the extended stop sign is withdrawn, and the bus begins moving, before you start to drive.
  • Never pass a bus while it's lights are flashing.
  • Pay attention to school zones.
  • Drivers backing out of a garage or driveway should watch for children walking to a school bus.

Kids:

  • Get to the bus stop at least five minutes before the bus is scheduled to arrive, standing at least 3 giant steps (6 feet) back from the curb, and lining up away from the street.
  • Wait until the bus stops, the door opens, and the driver says it is ok, before stepping onto the bus.
  • Walk on the sidewalk or along the side of the road to a point at least 5 giant steps (10 feet) ahead of the bus, before crossing the street.
  • Be sure that the bus driver can see you, and that you can see the bus driver.
  • Use the handrail to avoid falls.
  • Be careful that clothing with drawstrings and book bags with straps do not get caught in the handrails or doors when exiting the bus.
  • Never walk behind the bus.
  • Walk at least 3 giant steps (6 feet) away from the side of the bus.
  • Do not pick up something that has dropped near the bus because the driver may not see you.
