USA Bus Lines

Is it safe to cross the road without a Pedestrian crosswalk in order for me to take my school bus?

We just moved and my problem is, the school bus stop is across the road but I'm scared to cross the road without a Pedestrian cross? btw I have to wait 20 minutes before the school bus arrives, I'm not used to crossing the road without that Pedestrian crosswalk and crossing the road without that makes me a bit scared lol

1. You can do it and the chances of you getting hit by a car are pretty slim if you pay attention, but I think it might be against the law to have a school bus pick up with no pedestrian crossing.
2. Check both ways if the coast is clear, and when it is, run for it. Don't worry; cloaking devices for automobiles don't exist yet, so no invisible car's going to get you. LOL
3. The school bus will be there with all of it's lights going. So, when the bus stops, wait a couple of seconds for the cars to stop. That way nobody can drive thru the safety zone because it's blocked by stopped cars....
