With the start of the school year, student safety in and around school buses becomes a priority for schools, parents and motorists. In Arkansas, it’s illegal to pass a school bus loading or unloading students with its red lights flashing. Drivers in all lanes, even on multi-lane highways, regardless of direction of travel, must stop at least 30 feet before reaching the bus.
