A driver, convicted of failing to stop when required, can be penalized 6 demerit points, plus a fine of $100 to $500 for a first offence. This increases to 6 demerit points plus a fine of $250 to $1000 and/or impris- onment for up to six months for each sub- sequent offence. Drivers should also be alert when school buses are near railway crossings. All school buses transporting children to and from school must stop at any railway crossing that is not protected by gates or railway crossing signals; some school bus drivers choose to stop at protected crossings as well. The red flashing lights are not required for these stops, so other motorists should be especially alert.
