Abstract
A school bus sign with increased visibility is provided. The school bus stop sign apparatus includes at least a first stop sign and a second stop sign. The first stop sign may be pivotally attached to the side of a school bus. The second stop sign is attached to and substantially parallel with the side of the school bus. The second stop sign includes an indicator that allows drivers to sense that the bus is stopped to pick up children. When activated, the first stop sign may pivot 90 degrees and may be substantially perpendicular to the side of the bus. The indicator, such as a light, may be activated on the second stop sign. Therefore, a driver may see that the bus is picking up children from the front, the rear and the side.
