Question: 1 / 20

What should you do if you encounter a school bus with flashing amber lights?

Slow down and proceed with caution.

If you encounter a school bus with flashing amber lights, you should slow down and proceed with caution. This is because amber flashing lights indicate that the bus is about to stop and children may be getting on or off the bus. You should never pass a school bus when its amber lights are flashing as this can put the safety of children at risk. Option B may seem like a logical answer, but you should only stop if the red lights are flashing. As for options C and D, passing the bus quickly or slowly on either side is not safe as it increases the risk of accidents and can also be illegal in some areas. Therefore, option A is the correct and safest course of action when encountering a school bus with flashing amber lights.

Stop and wait until the lights stop flashing.

Pass the bus quickly on the left side.

Pass the bus slowly on the right side.
