This week is #SchoolBusSafetyWeek! In recognition, we will be sharing daily safety tips from October 19th - 23rd. Tip #1: Crossing the Road Do your kids know ho...w to safety cross the road after getting off a school bus? Always cross behind the school bus so that other drivers can see you and you can see them! Use a marked crosswalk whenever possible The safest thing to do is wait until the school bus leaves. This way, all other vehicles can see the roadway, and see anyone looking to cross ahead of time.
