Jackie Walorski (R-Ind.) and Julia Brownley (D-Calif.) introduced the House bill.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe tragic loss of young Hoosiers in bus-related crashes last year, including in Fulton County, was a reminder that life is precious and that we all need to work together to keep children safe,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/walorski.house.gov\/bus-safety\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Walorski said<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery driver has a responsibility to exercise caution when students are present, and that includes never passing a school bus that is stopped with red lights flashing or its stop arm extended. The Stop for School Buses Act will help our states and local communities take the most effective actions to prevent illegal passing of school buses and ensure students are safe when traveling to and from school.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) is a cosponsor of the bill.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSafety while traveling to and from schools should not be of concern for our students or their parents,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/stefanik.house.gov\/media-center\/press-releases\/stefanik-cosponsors-stop-school-buses-act\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">said Stefanik<\/a> \u201cThis bipartisan bill will help our local communities take the best course of action to prevent illegal passing of school buses and ensure the safety of our students. Many students in rural communities in my district will directly benefit from enhanced safety measures as they travel on busy, and often unpredictable, roads.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.congress.gov\/bill\/116th-congress\/house-bill\/2218\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Specifically<\/a>, the Department of Transportation must \u201cconduct a review of existing state laws and programs regarding the illegal passing of school buses; create a nationwide public safety campaign to highlight the importance of illegally passing school buses; review and evaluate the effectiveness of various technologies to enhance school bus safety; review driver education materials in states to determine how the illegal passing of school buses is addressed; and research the connections between the illegal passing of school buses and other safety issues, including distracted driving.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov\/Api\/Public\/ViewPublication\/812476\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More \u2013 Source<\/a><br \/>\n[contf]<br \/>\n[contfnew]<br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ninebyninedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/download.png\" \/><\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Epoch Times<\/a><\/h5>\n<p>[contfnewc]<br \/>\n[contfnewc]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republicans and Democrats have come together on the issue of school bus safety with the Stop for Sch..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":142033,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-142032","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
