Bus cameras need to be mandatory nationwide to get these violators tickets in the mail with enough points to suspend their licenses! And if that's not enough, community service and jailtime should be implemented to repeat offenders! And if that doesn't help, revoke licenses! After that, idk what will besides taking the car and crushing it after impounded!

As strick as Maine is in dealing with this PROBLEM. The FINE now is Aumatic 30 day SUSPENSION. Police in Brunswick me are riding in some school bus route6

thats the most precious cargo u ever gonna have

Judge:You ran a stopped school bus Driver:I didn't see the bus Me:That's because you don't pay attention to see big yellow bus with red light right in front of you

I agree with the young lady there are to many stupid drivers that don't pay attention it happens where I live and it make me mad that people dont seem to care

Someone in my neighborhood used spike strips whenever the bus would stop in front of his house. It took a few flat tires to get his point across. STOP!!

$1500.00 fine that will cure it real fast.

The woman who was crying is a true mother indeed

Misdemeanor, NO MAKE IT A FELONY!!! $1000 Fine 120 days in Jail

Make the fines high and have the fines pay for the cameras.

I am a driving instructor here in Chicago and I always tell my students to stop when the flashing red lights and stop arm extend. While teaching, cars would aggresively Honk at us and I would point at the bus sticking their stop arm out and they would literally pass on the left and go around to pass by student and curse at us. I cant believe people do not take this seriously.

TIme for a Roof Mounted Gun Turret? I will wager the children would love it.

There should be a $1000 fine and automatic license suspension until the fee is paid and the violator completes a government-mandated driver education course of at least 96 hours on their own dollar. There should also be 10 points added. In addition, all school buses should be required to have exterior cameras.

I admit, I’m impatient too. However, I do stop for flashing red lights on a school bus. I’m from Wisconsin, I was making a delivery in Alabama one afternoon. I was going the opposite way, I saw the school bus turn on its red lights, I was going the opposite way and was the first opposing vehicle. Not only did I stop, I turned my four-ways on while I was stopped until the bus’s red lights went off. I’ve known that you have to stop for red school bus lights since I was in grade school.

We need school bus cops!!

I would rather tell my boss i am late than go in front of a Judge

This is beyond outrageou, it is absurd!

Drivers weren't ignoring the buses, they flip them off and drive away.

I’m just now seeing this. Take away people driving license away and time in jail then maybe driving through bus stops will stop.

$2000 fine where I'm from.

Always wondered why the bus companies don't put a stick like they use out front for kids to walk around along the length of the bus that comes out so a car that doesn't stop hits it, if they bust it they pay for new one, this will wake them up for sure.

They need to start taking licensees for 6 months or more.

Just $500?! Ugh... We need to care for these beautiful children.

People don't care anymore...too worried about their phone...its not their kid so why would they care? SMH.

take their license from them for 6 months, as well as impound their vehicle for 60 days, take the issue to your elected officials, the violators will learn!

Jail time

There should be criminal charges and jail time. Not just freaking traffic fines. Maybe then people will start to pay attention.

I report a lot of those plates and none of them get followed up nor do any tickets get issued. This is a growing problem that's not getting any better.

Why aren’t we just giving stiffer penalties? Like minimum 30 days in jail would be good.

Two less minutes on the road equals two more hours in court.

Need photo cameras Just like when you Run a Red light And send 1.000 tickets to there address

Why not use spike strips?

It's happened once or twice to my bus, and they are right. Some kid is gonna be rushing to the bus and some moron might kill them. Perhaps some jail time is needed for this to be taught...

This breaks my heart I'm going to be starting out driving soon and I keep seeing videos like this one pop up its sick it really is if i see an on coming vehicle while my kids are crossing that driver will have a ton of problems with the school district and myself hell I'll walk my kids across I'm only 4'8 I've gotten hit once Ill risk my life for everyone of those kids that will be on my bus no fine or manslaughter charge is worth it

This will put a stop to it - I call it the "555.5 Law". For the first offense > 5 points on your license + 5 years license suspended + $5,000.00 fine. Second offense the same thing + 5 years in prison FLAT TIME! No parole! No suspensions! No Vacating the sentence! 5 Years day for day flat time in prison!!!! Watch how fast people stop for school buses then!

that stop signed beside the bus need to be at least 4 feet long. that would get attention

Should be 500$ every time no breaks EVER!need train horns on all busses

And the cops do nothing,i wonder why all school bus don't have cameras on bus so they get license plate .

When I drive if I late for work I honestly not to get fired I will blame the parents and their children to.

Our County installed Video Cameras on the buses.The County than reviews all the footage.They send the bus stop runners video to the Sheriff and he issues a ticket.But there is no bogus excuse that the Sheriff cannot say how tickets they issued. There is a report every month of how many tic kets are given.

Here in Houston it’s always BMWs and Mercedes that blow past the busses. Fines won’t make any difference.

I'm guessing a child will end up being seriously hurt or killed by people who won't stop when the bus has stopped and has the sign out. Is that what it is really going to take, a child being hurt or killed?

Bingo they don’t care!!!!!!!

Four flat tires would stop them .😊

5 points on your record and 2,000 fine will inspire many to stop illegal actions…

cops are not enforcing the laws of the road i see it all the time

We need mandatory driving schools

How the hell do you not see a huge ass yellow school bus? Put the goddamn phone down and pay the hell attention!

I've been driving for 54 years in Michigan and never once have I seen anyone do this. So like, damn...what is the problem in this community? 😔

If they can't see a big yellow bus they shouldn't be driving

They are in too much of a hurry to get their kids to school and go to work!

Need to put stobes on stop sign along with stop cameras. Automatically suspended licenses

If busses had a similar thing to red light cameras on them that took a pic and sent a $500 dollar ticket to each and every single car that didn’t stop it would solve the issue

That stop sign should be long that opens up blocking the entire road instead of having a tiny stop sign. 🧐

This is a great way to create more revenue for any city. Just have the police follow the stopped school buses and give out $700.00 Dollar tickets to drivers that don't stop. Just an idea.

It’s a very easy fix start charging people with attempted murder because that’s what could possibly happen.

這位School bus driver說到此事竟然哽咽，身為同行的我感同身受，不過我會說著說著就火大，恨不得把這些司機揪下來痛打一頓。

I think they should install police sirens on the buses and put a separate button for it that way the drivers will have their reg. horns but if someone is passing a stopped school bus a couple taps on a siren and the drivers will be slamming on the brakes thinking a cop is there also it would put the fear in the drivers because they will think they got lucky that time and they won't be so quick to do it again.

SEMD ALL SCHOOL BUS OFFENDERS TO JAIL.

With modern LED lighting available - why not a BRIGHT flashing red light afixed to the swing-out stop sign? Something that grabs immediate attention. Also - how about a super LOUD horn - like a railroad engine horn?

1.000 fine and 30 days in jail

95% of everybody on the road is a lousy driver. Obvious, really.

200 citations in a year? You are not getting started! I drove school bus for 5 years and I wrote over 200 A YEAR in a small town of about 6,000!

Make the Arm of the stop sign longer to obstruct the roadway,if a busted windshield didn't get the point across,add to the fine,min of 2500 and up,also mandatory licence suspension of 90 days....it might help

I was rear ended by a car once for stoping 🛑 for a school bus. The other driver was very irate trying to blame me for something whatever!!

I do not know WHY so many people are so dump ..... How can you miss a YELLOW and BIG school bus.

1st offense- including phones- 60 day suspended 2nd offense- gone for good

Here's the strange thing: Your KZfaq recommended list likely links you to another news station airing a similar story in a completely different part of the country. This likely happens tens of thousands of times every day in the school year. Why is this such a problem in the US? Why do people driving have such little care for pedestrians that they'll blow through signs and potentially kill small children?

Idiots in my town ignore pedestrians on the crosswalk too always on the phone or putting their makeup on

$1000 fine points on your license and insurance rate hike

come on follow the bus in an unmarked cruiser, youll get them all day long

Close where I live in northern indiana 3 kids were killed by driver who flew the stop sign at 80mph.

my idea that could and would put an end to this: something that slides out from under the bus and flips up to block other lane of traffic.

Have an arm like a railroad crossing arm on the Drivers side that comes out to block the lane.

If you ignore a stopped school bus, you will lose your driver’s license.

Two video cameras could solve this. Once the stop arm goes out the video cameras come on. If you drive past. You get a nice envelope in the mail that's going to cost you. No questions about the guilt or not video tells the truth.

Should be a felony

I believe running a school bus fine should be at least $1000 fine or/and driving course to reduce the fine to $500 if found guilty

Sadly getting a license plate number is really not good enough, as police need proof of who was driving the vehicle in order to suspend licenses or give points. Otherwise, all they can do is fine the car owner.

If that School Bus Transportation Alex, INC. Existed and these busses had Air Conditioning and Extended Stop Signs and Cameras recording, These people would've been caught on camera and loud Train Horns would've made you stop with a Startling Surprise

I have travelled the world and the US is the only country that I've seen us this method of all stop school bus service. In the UK we supervise school crossing with Lolly pop persons ++but after that its the parents job to see the child home safely. As a kid I was taught by my parents and the police on school visits how the look, listen and look again. ++ They used a stick with a round disc that looked like a lolly pop. What happens on the w/e when their taken out by their parents, do they blindly walk across the street in front of their car.

Whatever happen to bus driver assistance? Once the bus stop pull it's stop sign then the assistance go out and block the traffic with his or her stop sign making it alot safer for the kids who do cross the other side of the road.

Make the fines large enough to pay for the cameras, both front and rear.

Easy have camera on the bus that automatically uploads the plate number in the system. After 4 500$ tickets in a week theyll learn 🤷🏿‍♂️

Written test each year [or two] when renewing the license. Yank it for a year with a heavy surcharge attached. Make it as difficult as they do with DWI cases. If the reason has to do with a device, then throw the book at them!!! These are worse, IMHO.

High resolution digital video cameras! Get tag # & photo of driver. Make fine insanely expensive plus points! This is every bit as vital (& criminal) as a DWI!

this should be one of, if not the most harsh ticket you can get. Running a school bus stop light to just save a few seconds is the most selfish thing you can do.

Maybe a gate needs to be installed on the school buses to stop traffic like the one on the train tracks , and if they go around the gate , slap them with a 5000 dollar fine ! These people need to wake up and stay off their damn phones while driving !

As a bus driver for 12 years, answer is very simple outside camera, fine in the mail, trust me will pay more attention. they may not care for the laws but hit them in the wallet and they care...

They should have a school bus camera. Whenever, you run a stop sign on a school bus, they mail you a picture of the car you were driving and the fine you have to pay.

I was behind a car when one like this happened.luckily i had a dash cam and went turn it into the police.had their car and plate number on video.i dont know what the police did but i hope they found the people and gave aome sort of action

How many times is that SUV going to pass that bus?

Why don't they retake the road test

0:01 OML HOW DARE THAT EXPEDITION NOT STOP! THAT DRIVER IS A DISGRACE TO THE EXPEDITION CLUB

Put police and fire truck sirens on these busses. whatever it takes.

Just an idea, why don't we equip the buses with speed cameras that become active when the stop sign on the bus is deployed catching all the vehicles plates that pass slapping them with 1k fines, once the public is aware the yellow buses are equipped with these cameras I'm sure it will lower the rate of violators.

Those kid need to train for crossing street too,I driving school bus for nyc

I think they should install license plate readers on all school buses, and send a nice hefty fine to each driver that drives past a bus with its red lights flashing. "Oh but that's gonna cost a lot of money!" is always the excuse. Maybe you don't know what a fine is? It's money. Like, as in, the same kind of money that can be used to _pay for installing license plate readers on school buses_ ...

Key word. YET!

One time I was crossing a road and this jeep rushed through if I had not stoped to read a text I would have gotten hit.
