A new law aims to improve school bus safety after a significant number of passing violations were recorded. In one day, 514 school bus passing violations were reported statewide. The National Safety Council notes that children aged 4-7 are most at risk, often within 10 feet of the bus when a driver is passing.

This age group is particularly vulnerable when drivers fail to exercise caution. A parent, Amanuel Medhanie, advises his children to prioritize their safety, but also wishes that adults would share this responsibility.

Further details about the new law and its implications are available from the source, providing more information on this effort to enhance school bus safety.
