On an undivided PEI road, a stopped school bus with flashing red lights and stop arm out requires:

Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. All traffic in both directions to stop until flashers off and arm retracted

Children cross in front of and behind buses; both directions stopping eliminates turning-child collisions.

Why the other answers are wrong
