Explanation
On a two-way street, drivers in both directions must stop for a school bus picking up or dropping off students. Remain stopped until the stop signal is retracted and you are sure no children are on the roadway. The only exception is if you are traveling in the opposite direction of the bus on a divided highway (with lanes separated by an unpaved space of 5+ feet, a raised median, or a physical barrier). In this case, stopping is not required, but proceed with caution.
