When is a driver not required to stop for a school bus?

When driving on a one-way street
When the bus is stopped on the opposite side of a median
When the bus is stopped on the opposite side of a divided highway
When the bus is stopped in a parking lot

The correct answer is: When the bus is stopped on the opposite side of a median

A driver is not required to stop for a school bus when the bus is stopped on the opposite side of a median. This is because a median physically separates the lanes of traffic, providing a safe space for students to board and exit the bus without interfering with traffic. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not provide a physical separation between the bus and traffic, making it unsafe for students to cross the road. Option A refers to a one-way street, which still has traffic flowing in the opposite direction. Option C refers to a divided highway, where vehicles are only separated by painted lines and can still pose a risk to students crossing the road. Option D refers to a parking lot, which is not a designated stop for school buses and would put students at risk if they were to exit the bus there.
