Be Bright - Think Right: School Bus Safety
Prevention is the key to school bus safety. Transport Canada and the RCMP
have teamed up for the Be Bright-Think Right campaign to help children
across Canada stay safe. The cooperation of both educators and parents is
essential to this effort. Educators and parents can provide children with
frequent reminders about school bus safety.
The 10 basic tips on school bus safety ( a parent's guide)
Getting to the school bus
1. Remind your child to get to the bus stop at least five minutes before
the school bus arrives. Children should never run after the bus.
2. Your child should stay on the sidewalk; if there is no sidewalk; tell
your child to walk on the left side of the street facing traffic.
3. Remind your child that they should cross the street only at a corner
and look both ways for oncoming traffic before crossing. Choose the safest
way to get to the bus stop.
4. When the school bus is approaching the stop, your child must take five
steps back from the road.
Riding on the school bus
5. Once inside the bus, your child should take a seat as quickly as
possible, store their belongings under the seat, and stay calm.
6. Remind your child to stay seated until the bus comes to a complete stop
before getting up.
7. Your child should use the handrail when getting off the school bus.
After riding on the school bus
8. It is important to tell your children to stay away from the three
danger zones-the sides, front and back of the bus, stay at least 10 feet
away from the bus.
9. If the students have to cross the street, they should always do it on
front of the bus, and only after making sure the driver is aware that you
are there.
10. If the students drop something beside or under the bus, they should
never attempt to retrieve it without the driver's permission.
