Explain to them that the rules they are required to follow on or near the school bus are intended to keep them safe, not just make them miserable. Stress that anything that distracts the driver is particularly dangerous to everyone on the bus.<\/li>\n<li>Get to know the school bus driver. This is particularly important if you have small children. All school bus drivers should take their responsibility seriously, but making it personal can only help. In addition, by introducing yourself to the driver he or she may feel more inclined to communicate with you if there are any issues on the bus that could affect the safety of the children onboard.<\/li>\n<li>Stress to your children the importance of using the proper procedure for getting on and off the bus. Boarding and exiting in an orderly fashion, using the handrails, and keeping away from the bus until it is time to board are all important.<\/li>\n<li>Stay clear of the bus unless you are boarding or exiting. Buses have \u201cblind spots\u201d just like other vehicles. Although most are equipped with mirrors that are intended to help with those areas, do your part as well by steering clear of them. The areas on both sides at the front of the bus and at the very back of the bus should be avoided at all times.<\/li>\n<li>Pack backpacks well. Don\u2019t risk having your child jump off the bus at the last minute to pick up something that fell or trip over something that is hanging loose.<\/li>\n<li>Abide by all rules relating to where and when you should cross the street. A school bus cannot stop on a dime. Do not walk out in front of one.<\/li>\n<li>Question a bus stop location if it does not appear safe to you. Your child\u2019s safety is at stake. If you feel that a bus stop is not safe for any reason, contact the appropriate officials now before something tragic happens.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As the school year gears up again, we hope that these safety tips will be of help in keeping you and your children safe.
