Republicans and Democrats have come together on the issue of school bus safety with the Stop for School Buses Act, a bi-partisan bill would provide a comprehensive federal evaluation of methods to prevent accidents and protect the safety of children riding school buses.

This legislation would require the Department of Transportation to compile laws on illegal passing in all states, review existing public safety measures and programs discouraging illegal passing of school buses, and create new strategies and messaging.
