DUBOIS – On Oct. 22, the Pennsylvania Department of Education will conduct “Operation Safe Stop.”
“Operation Safe Stop” is an effort to help make others aware of the dangers of bus stops and the need for stopping vehicles while students are loading or unloading.
The DuBois Area School District will be participating in this event. One of the focal points in the DuBois area will be along Main Street near Spring Avenue.
Over the past 17 years, PennDOT, along with law enforcement agencies and pupil transportation associations, has conducted “Operation Safe Stop.”
On Oct. 22, school districts would like drivers to document any illegal passes occurring on their routes during the day. Drivers are asked to obtain identifying information regarding the vehicle and the driver to file with local authorities.
