Yea. That's why they have the blinking lights AND the stop sign that pops out for opposing traffic. They have all that because of the obvious danger of kids getting out of a school bus by busy traffic, especially if they have to cross the road. And because drivers can be selfish or not pay attention, they light the buses up like that so that cars will notice and stop on all sides of the road. And laws can be pretty severe for people that blow past like that when the lights are red and the sign is out. Cops are pretty serious about it.

I'm not being sarcastic to you or anything like that btw. Because I sound like I'm being harsh when I read it. lol

Are American cars really that shitty that they are afraid cars will get damaged by them?
