school buses

Student morning rides

School buses are vehicles designed to transport students to and from school, typically painted bright yellow for visibility and safety.

In North America, the yellow school bus is iconic—other drivers must stop when its red lights flash and stop sign extends.

The term can refer to both the standard full-size bus and smaller variants: The school buses lined up outside the gymnasium after the game.
