Chinook's Edge School Division and Red Deer Catholic Regional Schools officials are urging students and motorists to be aware of rules to keep students safe as they get on and off school buses in Olds.
School buses running in the town do not use alternating flashing red lights when dropping off or picking up students. Therefore, it is imperative that:
Students remain in the safety zone (at least one metre from the curb of a road as they have been instructed by their bus driver).
Motorists proceed with extreme caution when driving near a school bus.
Students are NOT allowed to cross in front or behind the bus during pickup or drop-off, because the town does not use alternating flashing red lights to control traffic.
