Well, it is Connecticut. Living that close to so much salt water can really screw you up in the head.

We had a case in Louisville a few years ago where a woman went around the bus and killed two children.

I’m sure they consider themselves a sanctuary city and accept gangs and drugs as part of being ‘diverse’ so ‘putting kids at risk’ is disproportionately on city ‘leaders’. Not the drivers they give taxpayer money to.

Bridgeport Mayor Joe Ganim has won a do-over Democratic primary, months after a judge threw out the result of the last one because of allegations of absentee ballot stuffing in Connecticut’s largest city.

Appears citizens are just following De Mayor’s example….. you know rot from the head……

In my neck of the woods _all_ traffic laws are considered suggestions. Right turn on a stop sign? Don’t even slow down. Passing on the shoulder? Go for it. Why would things be any different for a bus with flashing lights?

The police have these new SUVs that everyone is calling stealth cars. Blacked out except for the dark grey shield on the side. But if you watch these cops are just as guilty of not following the traffic laws. I guess you can say they blend right in.

I have considered writing to the state representatives and just have them update the laws to say that stop signs are just red yield signs and to strongly enforce that. If you are turning in front of me when I don’t have a stop sign, and I have to apply my brakes, you get a ticket.

Alas, I have a cloud to go shout at.

If the license plate is readable then the city is going to
make some money. Hopefully the camera has a date on
it, but not necessary to show they didn’t stop.

“Illegal passing” is such harsh language. It needs to be called “undocumented passing.”

I see more and more drivers not yielding to emergency vehicles with lights and sirens (police, fire and ambulances). And if they do, they pull out and fall in line right behind them to gain spots in traffic. Idiots abound...

$100 ticket for each would mean 1M for the city coffers!!

Up front, I believe this should be harshly prosecuted (passing of stopped school buses) for OBVIOUS reasons. So I am not supporting anyone passing a stopped bus, just to be clear. I don’t do it, and I don’t think others should either.

But...what is it now with busses stopping every 100 feet in front of every damn house? And if the kid isn’t there, they wait. What is with that?

I know there are people who will say “BUT THERE ARE NO SIDEWALKS, BLAH BLAH BLAH!”

This is in places with sidewalks. What happened to having kids walk 50 to 100 yards to congregate somewhere and wait for a bus, instead of stopping every 100 feet???

The police need to throw out spike strips in front of the cars who illegally pass school buses.

See how far they get on four flat tires.
