Explanation
When a school bus has its red flashing lights on, it indicates that children are either getting on or off the bus. As a driver, you are required by law to stop and wait until the children have crossed the street and the lights stop flashing. However, if the school bus is on the other side of a divided highway or a multilane road (with two or more lanes in each direction), you are not required to stop.
