CSEA APPLAUDS NEW BUS SAFETY STOP-ARM CAMERA LAW

ALBANY, NY (08/06/2019) (readMedia)– The CSEA, representing thousands of school bus drivers and monitors across the state, applauds the signing of legislation allowing the use of cameras on school buses. This legislation will capture vehicles that illegally pass stopped school buses and provide for increased penalties for violators.

CSEA President Danny Donohue said, “We hear from our school bus drivers every day about drivers who illegally pass their stopped buses, putting the children they drive at risk. Our bus drivers and monitors are constantly on the watch to protect them, but we can never be too safe. We applaud the Governor for signing this bill, which will give law enforcement a great tool to prosecute people who put our school children at risk.”
