Shelby County to launch patrols aimed violations of school bus safety
[]
1010 WCSI
The Shelby County Traffic Safety Partnership is planning on an enforcement effort aimed at drivers who are ignoring school bus stop arms.
The expanded patrols looking for school bus stop-arm violations are going to start Monday.
They are funded by grants through the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute and the Shelby County Drug Free Coalition.
Passing a school bus that has its stop-arm deployed and lights on is illegal as well as dangerous, the Shelby County Sherriff’s Department says.
They say there is never an excuse to bypass a stopped school bus.
