The Dutchess County Sheriff’s Office would like to remind motorists that schools in the Dutchess County area are now beginning to open for the year, and to please be aware that school buses and young people will once again be out on the roadways. Drivers are urged to always use caution and drive carefully, but especially this time of year when kids are coming and going from school buses and bus stops. Motorists are asked to pay close attention and remember the following:
Please follow the law and use caution while out on the roadways to keep our kids safe while going to and from school. The safety of our young people depends largely on the actions of the drivers out on the roadways, and it is vital that everyone do their part to help our youth have a safe and happy school year.
