What should drivers do when they see a school bus with its stop sign extended?

When drivers see a school bus with its stop sign extended, they are required to stop and wait until the sign is retracted. This law is in place to ensure the safety of children getting on or off the bus. The extended stop sign signals that children may be crossing the road or are nearby, and stopping helps prevent any potential accidents.

It is crucial for drivers to remain stopped until the school bus's stop sign is no longer extended, as children can be unpredictable when crossing the street. By adhering to this rule, drivers contribute to a safer environment for children during school pick-up and drop-off times.

Driving past the bus while the stop sign is extended, or ignoring the sign altogether, puts children at risk and is a violation of traffic laws in Nebraska. The focus should always be on ensuring the safety of the young passengers as they navigate their way to and from school.
