Students will be Heading Back to School Soon, Please Remember to Stop for School Buses

0

Students in southwest Indiana will soon be heading back to school and Indiana State Police would like to remind everyone the importance of watching for students and for stopping for school buses while they are loading and/or unloading children.

Indiana State Police receive complaints almost daily from school bus drivers, parents and concerned citizens about motorists not stopping for school buses when required. Distracted driving is no doubt a contributing factor, so troopers want to remind all motorists the importance of avoiding distractions while driving, especially near schools.

School bus drivers will activate the buses flashing amber/yellow lights when preparing to stop to load and/or unload children. When motorists observe the flashing amber/yellow lights they should slow down and prepare to stop.  Once the school bus stops and the RED flashing lights are activated and the stop arm is extended, motorists are required to stop and not pass the school bus.  Many motorists are confused when they are required to stop. Below is a diagram and a few examples to help motorists understand when they are required by law to stop.

Two-Lane Roadways, which include most state highways, county roads and most city streets

If a school bus stops on a two lane road and the red flashing lights are activated and the stop arm is extended, all motorists MUST stop.

Multi-Lane Roadways with NO Barrier between Lanes

Few examples: SR 662, SR 62 between Chandler and Boonville, Covert Avenue, Morgan Avenue, SR 261 between SR 66 and Fuquay Road and North Green River Road north of Morgan Avenue.

When a school bus stops on a multi-lane roadway without a barrier and the red flashing lights are activated and the stop arm is extended, all motorists MUST stop.

Multi-Lane Roadway with a Grassy and or Concrete Barrier

Examples: US 41, Lloyd Expressway, SR 62 in Posey County, SR 66 in Warrick County between Evansville and Spencer County.

When a school bus stops and the red flashing lights are activated and the stop arm is extended, only vehicles behind the bus MUST stop. Vehicles that are approaching from the opposite side are NOT required to stop.

Unfortunately every year in the United States, children are injured and killed walking to and from school and while loading and/or unloading from a school bus. School buses remain the safest means of transportation for our precious cargo, but we need every motorist to do their part and keep a watchful eye for children and to stop for school buses when required by law.

A person who disregards a school bus stop arm commits a Class A Infraction and could receive a maximum fine of $10,000.

Sheriff’s Office Preparing for Students Returning to School

0

On Wednesday, August 08, 2018 Vanderburgh County students will be returning to school for the 2018-2019 school year. The Sheriff’s Office will be stepping up our presence and enforcement around county schools and bus routes to help make sure this school year gets off to a safe start.

The beginning of school will result in a large number of buses on the road, children getting on and off those buses, new bus stop locations, new bus routes, congestion in and around the schools, new student drivers and many other factors to be aware of as our kids return to the classroom. This year, McCutchanville Elementary School on Petersburg Road will open its doors to students for the first time.

Sheriff Dave Wedding explained, “The new McCutchanville Elementary is located on Petersburg Road between Browning Road and East Boonville-New Harmony Road. Undoubtedly some morning commuters will be caught by surprise when they encounter the increased traffic around the school.” Sheriff Wedding added, “Our deputies will be patrolling all our school zone as both a deterrent and a reminder to slow down and pay attention.”

The Sheriff’s Office will be increasing patrols and watching for unsafe driving behavior, monitoring bus routes for safety issues and enforcing school bus stop arm violations. At some school locations, sheriff’s deputies will be assisting school personnel with traffic direction in and out of the school parking lots and drop off zones. The Vanderburgh County Highway Department will place large school zone warning signs near schools to help warn drivers.

Evansville-Vanderburgh School Corporation schools, Corpus Christi School and St. Joseph School will begin their first day on Wednesday, August 08, 2018. Resurrection Catholic School begins on Thursday, August 09, 2018.

Tips for back to school safety:

  • If bus service is available, please utilize it.
  • Please take pictures of your new student before you get to the school. Do not park in the drop-off zones of any of the schools to take your child into class.
  • Utilize the proper restraint systems in your vehicle.
  • Keep your speed to a minimum and pay extra attention in and around school zones and near school bus loading areas.
  • When a school bus stops and a red stop arm or flashing red lights appear, children are boarding or exiting the bus. Be on the lookout for children crossing the street even after the bus has moved on.
  • Please, no cell phone use in the school zones while operating a vehicle and no texting at any time while operating a vehicle.
  • Encourage children getting on and off school buses to be very mindful of surrounding traffic, because the traffic may not be watching for them.
  • Give yourself plenty of time. Do not let the frustration of running late compromise the good driving decisions you make.
  • Please call 911 to report dangerous driving situations.

Next week’s Back to School traffic enforcement comes in advance of a statewide “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” blitz, which is scheduled to run from August 10 through September 03, 2018. The Evansville-Vanderburgh County Traffic Safety Partnership will hold a news conference next week to provide the details.

“IS IT TRUE” AUGUST 7, 2018

12

We hope that today’s “IS IT TRUE” will provoke honest and open dialogue concerning issues that we, as responsible citizens of this community, need to address in a rational and responsible way?

IS IT TRUE that former Vanderburgh County Sheriff  Brad Ellsworth and Eric Williams, Vanderburgh County Commissioner Ben Shoulders and Old National Bank President and CEO Bob Jones hosted an impressive political fundraiser for the current United States Senator Joe Donnelly (D) last weekend at Just Rennie’s?

IS IT TRUE that this political fundraiser raised a bunch of money for the re-election committee of United States Senator Joe Donelly (D)?

IS IT TRUE we are told that this event clearly demonstrates that the local Democrat party of Vanderburgh County is starting to make a political come back?  …that former Mayors Mike Vanderveer and Mayor Jonathon Wienzapfel, a large contingency from local labor unions and many other Democratic party movers and shakers attended this big-ticket political event?

IS IT TRUE we were also told that there were several well known Republicans that attended the political fundraiser for the incumbent United States Senator from Indiana?

IS IT TRUE we been told that the United States Senatorial candidate Mike Braun’s (R) political handlers are predicting that he will win Vanderburgh County by a couple of percentage points?  …we are told if anyone from Mike Braun’s campaign committee would have attended the Shoulders, Ellsworth, Williams, and Jones sponsored political fundraisers for the United States Senator Joe Donelly (D) they may re-evaluate their prediction?

IS IT TRUE we are told that several people are wondering why DMD isn’t doing some street and sidewalks renovations in the Center City and West Franklin Street areas?  …they would also like for the DMD to give facade grants to existing businesses and low-interest loans to develop loft apartments in the Center City and  West Franklin Street area?

IS IT TRUE recently Saratoga Race Track and Casino recently purchased Ellis Park for an undisclosed amount of money? …at a recent news conference held at Ellis Park, the individuals representing the owners of Saratoga Race Track and Casino pledged that they are going to immediately address the obvious maintenance issues in order to make the track and casino more modern and customer friendly? …this is great news for the regular patrons at Ellis Park?

Todays“Readers Poll” question is: Do you feel that the race between Mike Braun (R) and the United States Senator Joe Donelly (D) will be a political barn burner?
