School is back in session and school buses are back on the roads. Here’s an important reminder from Bend PD
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- Now that school is back in session, the Bend Police Department has an important reminder for motorists: school buses are on the road and you must obey traffic laws to keep everyone safe.
The department says school buses are equipped with flashing red or amber lights and those lights let drivers know that the bus is about to stop to pick up or drop off students.
Most school buses also have a stop sign arm that pops out from the driver’s side window.
In Oregon, you must stop for a school bus across all lanes, unless you’re on a divided highway with an unpaved median strip or barrier.
