Twenty-five million students ride on school buses. If you're a school
bus rider, follow these safety tips--they can help prevent injury.
Line up facing the school bus
door--not along the side of the school bus.
Don't play in the street while
waiting for the school bus.
Carry your belongings in a backpack
or book bag.
Never reach under a school bus to get
anything that has rolled or fallen underneath.
After getting off the school bus, move
immediately onto the sidewalk, out of traffic.
Wait for a signal from the bus driver
before you cross the street. Walk at least 10 steps away from the front
of the bus so that the bus driver can see you.
