[quote=Anonymous]I hear the posters who are saying they drive more slowly and/or stop in this example, but it can be a danger to other cars (which likely have children in them as well) on your side of the road if you are stopping when the rule is that you are not supposed to stop under the circumstances. OP's example is on a neighborhood street where likely no one is going over 20 mph anyway, but this same set of facts is applicable on the stretch of Bradley Blvd in Bethesda near Arlington Road, and it becomes a dangerous situation when cars abruptly stop (after previously cruising at speeds more like 35-40 mph) for school buses on the other side of the median, especially when the cars which stop are in the lane closest to the median. It's like people who stop at busy intersections when it is only a 2 way stop, not a 4 way - if you are not on the side with a stop sign, you can cause an accident by stopping.[/quote]
