REMEMBER: most school buses are painted
yellow and carry a flashing red light front and
back when stopped. HOWEVER, in large cities,
regular commercial buses displaying a large
"SCHOOL BUS" sign, front and back, are ALSO
school buses and must be recognized. If in
doubt, stop. No excuses are acceptable. Watch
for these special buses in cities.
