The annual School Bus Safety Awareness Campaign has been a project of Safety Services Nova Scotia for the past few decades.
This year, the campaign’s theme is “Drivers and students, we all have a role to play. Stop, look, listen – that’s the safest way!”
The primary campaign goal is to educate the public of the dangers of illegally passing a school bus that is stopped with its red lights flashing.
A secondary goal is to engage school aged children by offering reminders of school bus safety rules in a fun way, and to encourage parents to take the initiative to learn about and teach school bus safety.
