It is critical for drivers to be vigilant when school buses are in the area they are driving.&nbsp;

It only takes a second for tragedy to occur, please take time to protect our local kids. 

Reminder - if you are traveling on a multi-lane roadway and a bus stops in front of you, you are required by law to stop as well and not go around the bus in the inner lane.
