Pedestrians have both right and duties, and should not attempt to cross the road at any place other than a marked or unmarked crosswalk.

What do flashing yellow or amber lights on a school bus mean?

Flashing amber lights are used by school buses in Oklahoma and many other states to indicate that they are slowing down and preparing to stop. In Oklahoma, the amber lights will be activate at least 200 feet or 5-10 seconds before the bus will stop.

Which passengers have to wear a seat belt?

In Oklahoma, the driver and all front-seat passengers age 13 and older must wear a seatbelt. Violation of the seat belt law is a standard offense. In addition, the child passenger safety law also requires that all children wear an appropriate child restraint. What is appropriate depends on the size, height and weight of the child. For children over 8 and taller than 4 feet 9 inches, the appropriate restraint is a seat belt.

How far away from a school bus loading or unloading passengers do vehicles have to stop?

Motorists from both directions have to stop for a school bus loading or unloading passengers. School buses in Oklahoma use flashing red lights and/or a stop arm to indicate that the bus is stopped to load or unload school children. Do not proceed until the school bus has started driving again, the lights have stopped flashing, the stop arm has been retracted or the driver signals for motorists to proceed. A stop is not required when driving on an opposite roadway or when stopped in a loading zone by a controlled-access highway where crossing is prohibited for pedestrians.

Which of the following is a 4-point violation?

Oklahoma has a point system to keep unsafe drivers off the roads. Failure to stop for a school bus loading or unloading children is a 4-point violation. Following improperly or too closely is a 2-point violation. Failure to yield right-of-way is a 2-point violation. Accumulating 10 or more points within any five-year period will cause your driver's license to be suspended. 2 points will be deducted for every year in which there are no pointable traffic violations.

What should you do before driving in snowy conditions?

Removing snow and ice will not only make it easier for you to see the road ahead. It will also make it easier for other road users to see you. While it can be beneficial to let your engine warm up before driving, it's unnecessary to let it warm up for 40 minutes. Checking your tire tread depth is important, but it is something you should do when driving in all weather conditions and not just snowy conditions.

When are studded tires permitted?

Studded tires have studs embedded in the tread that provide added traction. They are permitted in Oklahoma between November 1 to April 1.

What is the maximum speed limit on county roads unless otherwise posted?
