楼主刚来北美?
不论米国,还是加拿大,当停着的校车的灯闪的时候,东西南北向的车都得停下来等。
有时候多学习一点没坏处。
下面是狗到的一位本地人的说法(
http://forums.redflagdeals.com/school-bus-flashing-lights-4-way-stop-1382745/#post17423404):
According to the Ontario HTA Section 175(9):
No person shall actuate the overhead red signal-lights or the stop arm on a school bus,
(a) at an intersection controlled by an operating traffic control signal system;
(b) at any other location controlled by an operating traffic control signal system at,
. (i) a sign or roadway marking indicating where the stop is to be made,
. (ii) the area immediately before entering the nearest crosswalk, if there is no sign or marking indicating where the stop is to be made, or
. (iii) a point not less than five metres before the nearest traffic control signal, if there is no sign, marking or crosswalk; or
(c) within sixty metres from a location referred to in clause (a) or (b). R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 175 (9).
Therefore, the school bus driver appears to be violating this Section if he is letting kids on/off with the overhead lights flashing at an intersection with a stop sign.
澄清一下,以免误导。后来又读到对这种说法的回应:四面停牌路口不属于an operating traffic control signal system,所以校车司机可以直接停在路口。
