School Bus Safety

School bus safety requires students to wait at least 10 feet (5 giant steps) away from the road, wait for a complete stop before approaching, and obey all driver rules. Drivers sharing the road must always stop for flashing red lights and extended stop arms.

At the Bus Stop
-Arrive 5 minutes early.
-Stay 10 feet (5 giant steps) back from the curb or road.
-Never run after a moving bus

Getting On and Off
-Wait for the bus to fully stop and the door to open.
-Use the handrail.
-Cross 10 feet in front of the bus, never behind it.
-Make eye contact with the driver before crossing.
-Leave dropped items alone near the bus and tell an adult

Behavior on the Bus
-Find a seat fast and sit facing forward.
-Keep aisles and exits clear.
-Talk quietly and do not distract the driver.
-Keep head and arms inside the windows.

A reminder for everyone that when a school bus stops and its red lights are flashing, stop and wait.

A few extra seconds can make all the difference. As school starts, remember to watch for kids walking to school, using crosswalks, getting on and off buses, and walking around parked vehicles.
