On a two-lane road, a school bus with flashing red lights is stopped ahead. What must you do?

• A. Stop, no matter which direction you are traveling in.
• B. Stop if you are traveling in the same direction as the school bus.
• C. Slow to 15 mph and proceed with caution.
• D. Proceed with caution.

Answer: (A)

When a school bus on an undivided two-lane road is stopped with its red lights flashing, traffic in both directions must come to a complete stop. This protects children loading or unloading from crossing the roadway. You should停 at least 20 feet away from the bus and remain stopped until the red lights stop flashing and the bus resumes motion or signals it’s safe to proceed. The other options don’t fit because they either allow traffic in only one direction to stop or ask you to slow down or proceed with caution, which could put children at risk.
