Be Alert, Be Patient, Be Responsible!As Voorhees schools start to open for the class of 2027, we remind motorists to obey speed limits, watch for crossing guards, and stop for school buses. Just like traffic lights, the yellow lights on a school bus indicate that drivers should slow down and prepare to stop, rather than speed up. Red flashing lights and an extended stop-arm signal indicate that the bus has stopped and that children are getting on or off. Drivers MUST stop a safe distance away and not start again until the red lights stop flashing, the stop sign has been folded back, and the bus begins to move away. Voorhees Police Officers will be increasing their presence around our schools and bus stops when schools start. Together, we can create a safe environment for everyone! There will be ZERO TOLERANCE for violations of school bus safety laws. ...
