·' The Folly of It All Every driver,,when in the vicinity of a sic h o o 1 bus, should use extrE!me caution. Every driver should . be prepared to stof iristinctive-. ly and not try . to beat the bus. 1 The. reason is obvious - protection of the lives of young people. School bus drivers·, espe- cially those in the city, say these realities are to often flaunted. They !Should know. Furthermore,~ the law is that e v e r y vehicle must come to a stop when the school bus' speciiallights are flashing. Even' some people obviously ignore this. Some drivers reportedly even ignore this and, when confr:onted, claim the lights were not flashing. This is difficult for the driver to prove. Legally, it is one per· son's word agapts_t another's and this make!!! for a diffi- cult judicial reti:koning. At any rate,, the law re- garding motori•ts and school buses and its thrust of try- ing to save li~es are sound and in the best conscience and certainly f~r the good of mankind.. 1 The frenzy and dismay of school bus drivers are un- derStandable. The callous- ness of some motorists is not. It is good that the school bus people have stepped for- ward and made the problem known. Let us hope that it will help some people to see the folly of th~ir ways. . . -Batavia Daily ~ws .. ··, ; ' . •.
