State law requires school bus drivers stop, turn on the caution lights, put the bus in neutral, set the air brake, turn off all fans and blower motors, turn off the radio, open the driver side window, open the passenger door, keep the students quiet, and look and listen in both directions. The procedures are reversed before the driver crosses the tracks.
