密歇根州增加了公交站巡逻,以打击非法通行,在2024年发生了54起事故之后. Michigan ramps up bus stop patrols to combat illegal passing, following 54 crashes in 2024.

密歇根州执法部门下周将在全国校车安全周期间加强巡逻, Michigan law enforcement will intensify patrols next week during National School Bus Safety Week as part of "Operation Safe Stop," targeting drivers who illegally pass school buses with flashing red lights and extended stop-arms. 该运动由密歇根公路安全规划办公室和交通伙伴牵头,旨在减少2024年公共汽车站发生54起撞车事故,造成26人受伤和1人死亡的危险事件。 The campaign, led by the Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning and transportation partners, aims to reduce dangerous incidents after 54 crashes occurred at bus stops in 2024, resulting in 26 injuries and one fatality. 调查显示,2025年5月有2 200多起非法通过的情况。 Surveys show over 2,200 instances of illegal passing in May 2025. 当红灯闪烁时,司机必须至少停在20英尺之外,处罚从罚款500美元到死亡后监禁15年不等。 Drivers must stop at least 20 feet away when red lights flash, with penalties ranging from $500 fines to 15 years in prison if a death occurs. 官员们强调,为了维持交通流量,在繁忙的公路上也发生使用无红灯的黄色闪光灯来制止危险的情况,但一切停止都把学生安全放在优先地位。 Officials stress that hazard stops—using yellow flashers without red lights—also occur on busy roads to maintain traffic flow, but all stops prioritize student safety. 更多信息可查阅www.michigan.gov/schoolBusSafety。 More information is available at www.Michigan.gov/SchoolBusSafety.
