This Day in History: 1948-07-08
County School Superintendent Roy Zimmerman reminded all School Boards in the County of the new state law designed to prevent motorists from passing a stopped school bus. All school buses must be equipped with red oscillating lights on the front and back which would go into operation when the bus stopped to take on or discharge passengers. The Mahwah Board added several clauses to their contract with the Ramsey Transportation Company to cover the buses used to transport pupils to and from Ramsey High School and to the elementary schools in the District.
