OPP reminds motorists
of school buses on roads
HURON — School has
started and the OPP
are reminding
motorists that school
buses will be back on
the roads.
It is the law that vehi-
cles approaching a
school bus from both
directions must stop if
the upper red lights
are flashing and the
stop arm is extended.
Vehicle owners can
be charged if their
vehicle illegally passes
a stopped school bus.
Before 2005, only the
driver could be
charged if he/she was
identified. The total
fine for not stopping
for a school bus ranges
from $490 up to $2,000
and six demerit points.
Each subsequent
offence includes a fine
of $1,000 up to $4,000,
six demerit points and
possible jail time of up
to six months.
The only exception to
this law is on highways
separated by a median
where traffic coming
from the opposite
direction is not
required to stop.
Members of the
Huron OPP will be out
in full force ensuring
children get to school
and home safely. They
will be targeting school
zones and bus routes
to ensure all motorists
get the message about
safety.
