How many points are deducted for not yielding to a school bus?
1 Answers
Not yielding to a school bus results in a 6-point deduction. The correct method to yield when encountering a stopped school bus: On a road with only one lane in the same direction: When a school bus stops on a road with only one lane in the same direction, vehicles behind must stop and wait, and are not allowed to overtake. On a road with two or more lanes in the same direction: When a school bus stops on a road with two or more lanes in the same direction, vehicles in the same lane behind and in adjacent lanes must stop and wait, while vehicles in other lanes should slow down and pass. When riding a school bus, always fasten your seatbelt; otherwise, you may suffer collision injuries during braking. Eating or drinking is prohibited while the school bus is in motion to avoid food or beverages entering the respiratory tract during sudden braking or accidental collisions, which could cause harm or endanger life safety.
