🚍 School Bus Safety Refresher!
When you see a school bus:
🟡 Yellow flashing lights = Bus is preparing to stop. Slow down and get ready to stop.
🔴 Red flashing lights = Bus is stopped and students are loading/unloading. You must stop and wait until the lights stop, the arm retracts, and the bus moves.
Let’s keep our students safe! 💛
