๐Ÿšโœจ #SchoolBusSafetyWeek โœจ๐Ÿš Q: Why are school buses yellow? A: "National School Bus Glossy Yellow" was chosen in 1939 for safety! ๐ŸŸก๐Ÿ‘€ It's easy to spot in your peripheral vision, visible in poor weather, and has high contrast for better readability. ๐ŸšŒ๐Ÿ’›

๐Ÿšโœจ #SchoolBusSafetyWeek โœจ๐Ÿš Passing a stopped school bus with flashing red lights can lead to fines ($400-$4,000), 6 points, and up to 6 months jail. Endangering kids is not worth it. Even if you weren't driving, the vehicle's owner can be charged. Stop for school buses! ๐ŸšŒ๐Ÿ’›

๐Ÿš๐Ÿšจ #SchoolBusSafetyWeek โ€“ Why do school buses stop at railway crossings? ๐Ÿ›‘ It's the law! Drivers must stop, look, and listen for trains to ensure safety. This rule dates back to 1938 after a tragic crash in Utah. It adds a few seconds but keeps students safe on every ride. ๐Ÿšธ

๐Ÿš๐Ÿ” #SchoolBusSafetyWeek Q: Why no seat belts on school buses? A: Unlike cars, buses use "compartmentalization" for safetyโ€”high-backed, padded seats that are closely spaced and securely anchored. This design protects kids on every ride and allows quicker exits in emergencies๐Ÿšธโœจ
