Is it illegal to pass a stopped school bus with flashing red lights unless if it is on the other side of a multiple lane or divided highway? When you stop for a school bus, you cannot drive again until the bus starts moving again or when the bus driver or a traffic officer signals that you can proceed. This law applies on all roadways in New York State. You must stop for a school bus even if it is on the opposite side of a divided highway.
