On 9/8/2023, at approximately 3 PM, I witnessed one of your school buses blow through a stop sign at the intersection of Cressmoor & Sunningdale Blvd. This was unacceptable for a vehicle with children onboard. It could have caused a terrible accident. Please educate your drivers on the rules of the road. STOP MEANS STOP.
