You would think it was common sense for drivers to stop for a school bus that was stopped on the side of the road picking up students, but that's not always the case.

According to WNEM, a mother in Saginaw is concerned over the safety of her children as she shared a video to Saginaw's Online Neighborhood Watch showing several cars driving around a stopped bus while her daughter was boarding.

Yes, you can pass a school bus if the red flashers aren't on but you still have to be very cautious and drive slowly because you never know, a child could run out at any moment.

I learned this lesson on the first day of school in my senior year. I was driving to school and wasn't paying attention to a school bus that was picking up kids and I didn't stop. I just drove by without slowing or anything. I got pulled over by the police and got a ticket. It really freaked me out because I thought how I could have hit a child (thankfully I didn't). It's just something that stuck with me my whole life so I always pay attention.
