Bus Rules! Know the Rules, Ride Safe.
Back to school safety tips:
  • Have a safe place to wait for the bus, away from traffic and the street. Students should arrive at their stop five minutes before scheduled pick up time.
  • When being dropped off, students should exit the bus and walk ten giant steps away from the bus. Keep a safe distance between you and the bus. Remember that the bus driver can see you best when you are away from the bus.
  • Don’t start to board the bus until the driver gives the signal that it’s okay to approach the bus.
  • Be aware of the street traffic around you.
  • Once you are on the bus, remain seated and follow the driver’s directions. When the driver asks you to something or to stop doing something, don’t make a fuss or talk back.There’s a good reason for it.

Children who walk to school should also follow safety rules:

  • Mind all traffic signals and/or the crossing guard.
  • Never cross the street against a light, even if you don’t see traffic coming.
  • Walk your bike through intersections.
  • Walk with a buddy … walk with a buddy … walk with a buddy.
  • Wear reflective material. It makes you more visible to street traffic.
