How far do drivers have to stop from a school bus when its red lights are flashing?

15 feet
20 feet
10 feet
25 feet

The correct answer is: 25 feet

When a school bus is stopped and its red lights are flashing, drivers are required to stop their vehicle at a distance of at least 25 feet from the bus. This is to ensure the safety of students who may be getting on or off the bus, as well as to allow the bus driver to have a clear view of the surroundings. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not provide a safe enough distance for drivers to stop and can potentially endanger the lives of students. It is important for drivers to follow this rule and exercise caution when approaching a stopped school bus.
