buses Such as the penalties for riot slopping which could include six dement points fines up to and even imprisonment And this year there something new to watch for Chrome yellow school buses can be used for passen under 18 to or from any eventday or night Drivers will activate their flashing red lights and slop arms when their passengers get on or off the bus But the most Impor tant reason of all is simply this Your mistake could cost a child s And that kind of mistake never forgotten So remember drivers going in birth must stop for a school bus its red flashing and stop arm ex tended Drivers approaching from behind must stop at least metres about six car lengths behind the bus So be extra careful at ail times Keep an eye for Hashing lights and stop arms on school buses Please don
