[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just a PSA that if you encounter a stopped school bus with flashing red lights in Maryland, you must stop within 20 feet of the bus, even if you are on the opposite side of double yellow lines, where pedestrians cannot cross. I got a $250 ticket in the mail, as I didn't know what the rule was as I was approaching a busy four lane intersection and wasn't sure whether/when/where to stop.[/quote] Wait, what? There is no law saying that pedestrians are not allowed to cross a double yellow line. When in doubt, STOP FOR THE SCHOOL BUS THAT HAS ITS RED LIGHTS ON.[/quote] I agree there isn't a law saying pedestrians are not allowed to cross a double yellow line, but in this spot, the crosswalk is about 25 feet away. You would be crossing four lanes of traffic, so you should cross at the crosswalk, not at the double yellow line area.[/quote]
