What is the rule when a school bus on a two-lane road has red lights flashing?

When a school bus on a two-lane road has red lights flashing, traffic from both directions must stop. This rule keeps children safe as they load or unload, since there’s no median to separate opposing lanes. You must stay stopped until the lights are turned off and the bus starts moving again. Do not pass the bus at any time while the red lights are flashing. The other scenarios don’t apply here because the danger zone covers all directions on an undivided road.
