In two days of school last week we had TWO stop arm violations. Both of these have happened on Hwy 150.
Our drivers take great caution at stops, but we need your help to ensure the safety of our students.
A driver will engage their amber flashing lights when approaching a stop. That is a sign to SLOW DOWN and prepare to STOP. Drivers may wave you through when the ambers are flashing. BUT, when those lights turn RED you must stop by law.

Drivers who illegally pass a stopped school bus can be charged with a Class A misdemeanor, punishable by up to one year in jail and a fine of up to $5,000. If that action injures someone, the offense rises to a Level 6 felony, punishable by six months to two-and-a-half years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.
At WWSC we report and fully investigate every stop arm violation and we will use all means to identify those running a school bus stop arm. If you witness a stop arm violation, please try to note the make and model of the vehicle or get license plate information at report it directly to us at 812-755-4872.
Ideally we will not have to post images online to help identify violators, but we will post available images when we need assistance from the public.
