Pennsylvania State Police cite more than 1,000 people a year for the violations, but the actual number of violators is far higher because few drivers get caught, according to police spokesman Lewis. No students died while a school bus passenger during the same period. Sherri Landis, executive director of Pennsylvania School Bus Association in Camp Hill, said drivers are simply impatient. She doesn't know what more can be done to deter them from the dangerous practice. Our drivers have seen it all.
People pass on the right side.
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation and state police conduct a public awareness campaign each October to bring attention to the issue, but Landis said that's still not enough. No one has the magic answer right now. We don't know what else to do to make that school bus more visible. It's bright yellow. It's got strobe lights.
