1) Confusion Part II ! by MTH on February 12, 2007
So, sometimes the lights go on at 400 feet, sometimes at 200 feet? Could you come to my district and explain this to about 3000 parents? How is it now safer that this studfent has to walk 400 feet down the road becasue I can't activate the lights at 200 ?

200 feet is a common system that works. It provides more than adequate notice that the bus is going to stop ahead in ALL situations.

Combine this bill with 4226 and the chaos will be hillarious!
