Next week both St. Michael Catholic School and Grand Ledge Public Schools will begin the 2022-2023 school year. This is a perfect time for all drivers to remember the critical importance of stopping for buses and following the law.
When the yellow lights of a school bus are flashing, drivers need to slow down and prepare to stop. When the red lights of a school bus are flashing, drivers must stop. Yes, even when driving on W. Saginaw Hwy/M-43.
Please use extra caution around all pedestrians, especially near schools and bus stops.
Stay safe out there, Grand Ledge!
Michigan Vehicle Code (EXCERPT) Act 300 of 1949, 257.682 Amended, Effective October 11, 2021.
