The Vernon Police Department would like to remind our Facebook followers to be sure to stop when you see a stopped school bus with their flashers activated.

This means all vehicular traffic in all lanes and directions need to stop for the school bus. In regards to State Route 5, there seems to be some confusion. The law applies not only to the lanes in the same direction as the stopped bus, but both opposite lanes of travel as well. In this instance, motorists in all four lanes of State Route 5 need to stop for a stopped school bus with flashers activated.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions should the need arise! (315) 829-2550.

Thank you and have a great rest of your week!
