Most states do not require you to stop for a school bus that is on the opposite side of the road with a median. Laws vary from state to state so it is best to check the laws for your specific state.
yes
No because you are not allowed to cross a 4 lane road.
According to the Missouri driver's manual, you do not have to stop if your are traveling in the opposite direction of a school bus on any road having four or more lanes. In fact, it is illegal for a bus driver to permit students to cross multiple lanes of traffic.
not required to stop unless children are crossing the street
When I went through a driver update(for my company), the LEO said that school buses are not allowed to discharge passengers that would go across a four lane road. Therefore the vehicles travelling in the same directions as the bus must stop but vehicles going in the opposite direction are not required to stop.
ABSOLUTELY! ( IF the BUS is coming to or at a full stop!)
Octagon just like the stop signs on the road
If the median is paved you stop either direction. Grass median, only stop if behind the bus.
If the highway isn't divided by a physical barrier, you're required to stop, regardless of which lane you're in. As for the stop sign, the bus driver isn't supposed to have that stop sign out until the bus is stopped with red lights flashing, and they have ensured that traffic has stopped. However, their error doesn't negate your requirement to stop.
They should not be driving in the bus lane to start with bus lane means bus lane end of story.
NO, you must STOP unless you are on a hwy separated by a median then if you are opposite of the bus you may, but if you are the same side NO NO!
New South Carolina law does not require you to stop on any four lane road for a stopped school bus if you are headed in the opposite direciton. The old law required you to stop if you were separated by only painted lines - you could keep going if there was a grass median. It is now not legal for bus drivers to drop off children if they must cross a four lane highway, therefore opposing traffic does not have to stop on this type of roadway. The new law has been poorly marked by signs, so a lot of people don't know any better and still stop going the opposite direction on five lane roads. Texas law states that you must stop at all times for a school bus with it's red lights on unless you are travelling in the opposite direction of the bus on a highway that is divided by a grass medium or physical barrier.That does not include divided city streets,only highways. Unless there is some new law here, that is the way it stands now. CORRECTION: Texas traffic code defines "highway" as ANY public roadway. So, if you're on a public roadway with a PHYSICAL median and you are travelling the opposite direction of the school bus (on the other side of the median), then you may proceed cautiously. NOTE: This does NOT include simple left-turn lanes without a physical median. In many (most?) states the median described in the question defines a "divided" highway and the opposing traffic is not required to stop. All state laws are different CHECK YOUR OWN STATE!
