When encountering a stopped school bus traveling in the opposite direction on a multi-lane road, what are you required to do?

When you encounter a stopped school bus traveling in the opposite direction on a multi-lane road, the law requires you to continue driving carefully without stopping. This is because, on multi-lane roads, only traffic lanes that are directly adjacent to the bus need to stop when the bus is picking up or dropping off students. If the bus is on the opposite side, and there are multiple lanes separating your direction of travel from where the bus is stopped, you are allowed to proceed while still paying attention to your surroundings.

This rule helps maintain traffic flow while still ensuring proper safety measures are in place when a bus is active in picking up or dropping off students in the lanes that require stopping. It's important to remain vigilant for any children who may be crossing the road or moving toward the bus.
