Our school buses have stop signs with flashing lights attached that deploy when the driver stops and opens the door. So, yes, someone could just try to go around but it’s illegal and most people don’t because they know a kid is about to get out.
I've seen driver who kept on driving with that bus stop sign lifted from the opposite lane. Got chewed out by the bus driver, point is some people just drive badly
Actually should have gotten a major ticket for that! highly illegal. Glad he got chewed out! If you ever kit a kid, it will haunt you til the day you die... My grandma always talks about one of her grandparents accidentally hitting a kid that ran in front of the car & they thankfully lived but it haunted them forever.

Thanks for pointing it out..
Can anyone please explain this to me.
Doesn't usually open doors on the foothpath side? So, Passengers alight on the foothpath.. He's alighting on the road.
Doesn't matter when you say, "You don't overtake a standing school bus" but you can never know. Accidents don't tell you before they happen.
