Back to School

Dear Friend,

With the start of the new school year, please be mindful of students entering and exiting school buses.

Remember, state law requires motorists to stop when a school bus is picking up or dropping off children. Watch for school buses with their stop arms extended and red lights flashing, which means drivers from all directions must stop.


This law applies to all roadways,
unless it’s divided by a physical

barrier.
Look out for increased pedestrian traffic and posted speed limits in school zones. If you have a child who rides the bus, click here for tips to help keep them safe.

Best wishes to our students, parents and educators for another safe and fun school year!

Sincerely,


State Rep. Woody Burton
