When a school bus flashes its yellow lights, drivers must slow down and be ready to stop. When a bus is stopped and is flashing its red lights with its stop arm out, drivers should stop and wait until these signals have ended.<\/p>\n<p>The last thing drivers should ever do is try to swerve around a bus that is about to stop. Know that at any moment, a child could be crossing the road or heading toward the bus from somewhere you can\u2019t see. Be patient, and wait for the bus to collect or drop off and shut off its stop indicators, and then you are free to drive.<\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Lose the Phone<\/span> <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Distracted driving is never a good idea. But especially when in school zones, keep your phone out of reach and save the texting for later. The same goes for fiddling with navigation or other distractions.<\/p>\n<p>If you must make an urgent call or check directions, find a safe spot and pull over. Keep your eyes and attention on the road to allow for the best response to pedestrians, bicyclists, buses, and unexpected traffic events.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-30201 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.etags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2038765550-1-800x450.jpeg\" alt=\"Kids on bikes at school\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.etags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2038765550-1-800x450.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.etags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2038765550-1-1160x653.jpeg 1160w, https:\/\/www.etags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2038765550-1-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.etags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2038765550-1-2048x1153.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/www.etags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2038765550-1-120x68.jpeg 120w, https:\/\/www.etags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2038765550-1-90x51.jpeg 90w, https:\/\/www.etags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2038765550-1-320x180.jpeg 320w, https:\/\/www.etags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2038765550-1-560x315.jpeg 560w, https:\/\/www.etags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2038765550-1-1920x1081.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.etags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AdobeStock_2038765550-1-scaled.jpeg 780w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/450;\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Look Out for Walkers and Cyclists<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Back to school and school zones often bring more pedestrians and cyclists around residential streets and bus stops.<\/p>\n<p>Watch for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Kids crossing crosswalks.<\/li>\n<li>Children walking or cycling along the road.<\/li>\n<li>Bicyclists entering intersections.<\/li>\n<li>Kids getting into or out of parked vehicles.<\/li>\n<li>Walkers who might be difficult to spot in low-light conditions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Give a healthy amount of space to cyclists and stay ready for children to make sudden movements.<\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Give Yourself More Time<\/span> <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The easiest way to keep your driving calm is to leave earlier.
