What should you do when approaching a stopped school bus?

  1. Stop until all passengers exit

  2. Reduce speed and proceed with caution

  3. Honk your horn

  4. Increase your speed

The correct answer is: Stop until all passengers exit

When approaching a stopped school bus, it is important to stop until all passengers have exited the bus. This is because it is illegal to pass a school bus while it is stopped for passengers to enter or exit. Option B, reducing speed and proceeding with caution, may seem like a possible answer, but it is still important to come to a complete stop. Option C, honking your horn, is not only unnecessary but also potentially dangerous for the children exiting the bus. Option D, increasing your speed, is not only illegal but also puts the safety of the passengers at risk. Therefore, stopping until all passengers have exited is the safest and most responsible option.
