Once your school bus is stopped at a railway crossing, you must...?

Wait for 30 seconds before proceeding
Open the door to listen for approaching trains
Turn off the engine and wait
Signal all passengers to be quiet

The correct answer is: Open the door to listen for approaching trains

When waiting at a railway crossing in a school bus, the best course of action is to open the door and listen for approaching trains. This ensures the safety of all passengers on board and allows you to quickly react if a train is coming. Option A is incorrect because there is no set time limit for waiting at a railway crossing. Option C is incorrect because keeping the engine on could increase the risk of an accident if the crossing arms suddenly come down. Option D is incorrect because remaining quiet will not alert the driver to any potential dangers. Opening the door and listening is the safest and most effective way to handle a railway crossing while driving a school bus.
