I've been driving for 30+ years and never received a ticket from a police officer nor have I been in an auto accident.

Have you?

Have you?

I take that to mean you have received camera tickets. Which is probably why you think a plate cover is a "worthy investment". What does it say about you that that you willingly engage in illegal activity to cover up for your inability to follow basic traffic laws?

Regardless, do you want a cookie? Nobody cares about your supposed "perfect" driving record.

so here I am on NY 347, a divided highway where motorists are required to stop for school buses.
If the bus in the opposite lane is stopped a few hundred feet before this light, how do the people heading the other way see the bus through the median with all the trees ?

Seems like common sense

I propose they put it in a bill called the Patriot Protect Our Children USA #1 Law. It'll be sure to pass and NO ONE will even bother to read it.

Seriously, your proposal should be adopted by bus companies and school districts alike... Common sense!

Sounds like a rule in the game of "Monopoly"

Are you sure they are required to stop on a divided highway?

Yes NYS law says you must.

^ Well that’s just BS if you can’t even see the bus on the other side. Also it’s not like kids are climbing over barriers or medians to get to other side. I think I would fight that one if it happened to me.

Unfortunately, like red light camera tickets. You can't win in a kangaroo court.
