The National Safety Council offers these suggestions:
Today's Health Tips
* Wait for the bus far away from traffic. Stay on the sidewalk, and pay attention to passing cars.
* Use the handrail while entering and exiting the bus.
* Don't approach the bus until it has completely stopped, and the door is open.
* Allow at least 10 feet clearance if you cross the street in front of the bus. Wait for the driver to tell you that it's safe to cross.
* Make sure the driver can see where you are after you've left the vehicle.
* Stay well away from the bus's rear wheels.
