You are on a divided highway and a school bus on the other side stops with red lights flashing. In New York, what must you do?
- A.Continue, because the highway is divided
- B.Stop only if children are visible in the roadway
- C.Slow to 30 mph and proceed with care
- D.Stop, because New York requires stopping for a school bus even on a divided highway
Correct answer
D. Stop, because New York requires stopping for a school bus even on a divided highway
Why
New York requires you to stop for a stopped school bus with flashing red lights even when it is on the other side of a divided highway. This is stricter than the rule in many other states.
