DMV School Bus LAWS

SCHOOL BUSES

Pennsylvania has special rules you must follow when you drive near a school bus. These rules protect both children and drivers.  When a school bus is preparing to stop, its amber (yellow) lights will begin flashing. When the bus stops with its red lights flashing and its stop arm extended, you must stop at least 10 feet away from the bus whether you are behind it or coming toward it on the same roadway or approaching an intersection at which the school bus is stopped. Remain stopped until the red lights stop flashing, the stop arm has been withdrawn, and the children have reached a safe place. 


ALL VEHICLES MUST STOP!

Failure to stop for a school bus with a flashing red light and extended stop arm will result in a 60-day suspension of your driver's license, five (5) points on your driving record and a fine.

There is only one exception to the school bus stopping requirement. If you are approaching a school bus that is stopped with its red lights flashing and stop arm extended and you are driving on the opposite side of a divided highway, (i.e. concrete/metal barriers, guide rails or trees/rocks/streams/grass median), you do not have to stop. Reduce your speed and continue driving with caution.
