When you approach an intersection where a school bus is stopped with red signal lights flashing and stop arm extended, YOU MUST STOP.

YOU MUST STOP at least ten (10) feet away from the school bus.

YOU MUST WAIT until the red lights have stopped flashing and the stop arm has been withdrawn before moving.

DO NOT MOVE until all the children have reached a place of safety.
