CHP conducting school bus safety enforcement operation
The California Highway Patrol is conducting a school bus safety enforcement operation Friday aimed at educating drivers on the rules regarding flashing red lights on a school bus.
During the enforcement operations, CHP officers will ride as passengers on school buses and actively watch for motorists who fail to stop for a school bus with its flashing red lights activated and stop arm extended.
The officers will be in communication with CHP patrol vehicles in the proximity of the school bus. Officers say drivers who are observed illegally passing a school bus during the safety operation will be stopped by an officer and issued a warning or traffic citation.
