With Pulaski County students back in the classrooms, we want to remind everyone to please use caution during bus hours in the morning and afternoon. In accordance with Virginia law, you must stop for school buses with flashing red lights and an extended stop sign when you approach from any direction on a highway, private road or school driveway. Drivers must stop and remain stopped until all persons are clear and the bus moves again. If you on a road with a median or barrier dividing the road, you do not have to stop if the bus is on the other side of the barrier or median, but still be aware of unexpected actions by anyone who may exit the bus and attempt to cross. Also, be aware of reduced speed limit zones near schools during the hours the buses are arriving and exiting the school areas. Help us keep our students safe as they head to school and return home each day.
