Re: Unintentionally failed to stop for school bus!
Thanks Stanton, Since the bus driver spoke to me and she was not happy, I think if I am to be charged that would not be as RO! I hope I am right. :) I learned a big lesson! Aside from this, I have a perfect driving record, no tickets whatsoever as I respect the law and from the other hand I do not l...

Re: Unintentionally failed to stop for school bus!
Good news, no one has knocked on my door yet! Do they usually mail the ticket? Should I expect to receive a ticket in mail?

Re: Unintentionally failed to stop for school bus!
Thanks Squishy and Stanton,
In my case the bus stopped exactly at the stop sign. Having said that, right at the stop sign, there are no marks on the pavement indicating pedestrians can walk or cross. So, does the item (ii) in (b) section apply to my case?! Thank you for your input.

Re: Unintentionally failed to stop for school bus!
Oh, by the way I learned today that school buses are not supposed to have their lights flashing while they are right at the "Stop" sign! If this is true, it will then be to my advantage should we go to the court of law.

Re: Unintentionally failed to stop for school bus!
Stanton,
Again I appreciate that you ever so generously take your time to answer my questions. Yes, I am the owner, the good news is that it happened yesterday afternoon, and no one so far has knocked on my door and I hope they don't. Thank again sir.

Re: Unintentionally failed to stop for school bus!
Respectfully, the school bus driver spoke to me when I pulled next to her and she will be able to identify me in the court of law, how could I deny that I was not the driver? Any input is appreciated. Thank you.

Re: Unintentionally failed to stop for school bus!
Thanks Stanton. If I say I was not the driver, would the court not ask me who was driving?! Am I not obligated to say who was driving the car? Thanks for your time.

Unintentionally failed to stop for school bus!
Traffic.jpg As shown above, I (red box) stopped at the stop sign, there was also a school bus (yellow box) at the stop sign with lights flashing. The stop signs on the bus were not facing me, so I thought it would be ok to move now that the yield is with me. So, I did and the bus driver honked a lo...
