Ohio School Bus Laws
- When a school bus is stopped on a roadway to pick up or drop off passengers, the following regulations apply to other drivers on the roadway:
- If the bus is stopped on a street or road which has fewer than four lanes, all traffic approaching the bus from either direction must stop at least 10 feet from the front or rear of the bus and remain stopped until the bus begins to move or the bus driver signals motorists to proceed.
- If the bus is stopped on a street or road which has four or more lanes, only traffic proceeding in the same direction as the bus must stop.
