On a highway divided by a median, what is required of cars traveling on the opposite side from a stopped school bus?

When approaching a stopped school bus on a highway that is divided by a median, vehicles traveling in the opposite direction are not required to stop. The presence of a median serves as a barrier that separates the opposing lanes of traffic, providing an additional layer of safety for children who are boarding or alighting from the bus.

In Georgia, vehicles must stop for a school bus only when they are traveling in the same direction as the bus or when there is no median or barrier separating the roadway. Therefore, cars on the opposite side of a divided highway can continue to drive without having to stop, as long as they are mindful of any potential pedestrians and can safely navigate around the situation.
