Explanation
New Jersey law requires you to stop for a school bus with flashing red lights. You must stop at least 25 feet away if you are traveling on a two-lane road, on a multi-lane highway where lanes are only separated by lines, or on a private road. On a dual-lane highway, slow to 10 mph if you are on the other side of a raised median or safety island.
