Judging by your post, it sounds like you are dumb enough to do something like this.

If it wasnt a cop tell them to prove it.

Yea, a cop didn't see me AFAIK the school bus driver called it in but I have no idea if he actually got my plates or anything but the thing that bothers me the most is that there was no damn bus! I got to work at 8am, so that means I left around 7:40 the cop said it was at 7:47. So, what the hell?

So you're saying that this couldn't possibly have happened because it happened during the 20 minutes when you were driving to work? :confused:

I did that once. But the bus was still moving and had put on his yellow lights. I was on the opposite side of the road. No red lights yet or stop sign up. The bus driver flipped out and looked pissed and started waving his hands all over at me. Geez I'm still good to drive by until those red lights and stop signs come out! I would have stopped if they were. It's not like any kids could have even started getting out yet. But boy he was mad.

SAME thing happened to me. I saw the bus approaching with the yellow lights flashing, so I slowed down, but the bus kept MOVING and because of this I wasn't able to stop in front of the bus. I passed the front of the bus as it was coming to a stop (I was nearly stopped), so I just kept going. The bus driver was screaming at me out the window. Meh. No children were endangered, because the bus hadn't stopped.
