I would like to see cameras installed on our buses (costs absorbed by bus companies, and NOT reflected in our contract increases).
This happened in Washington state and has been all over the news in the last day or so:

And here on LI, Longwood SD is being proactive with potential legislation in Suffolk:
longisland.news12.com/news/longwood-bus-camera-program-exposes-drivers-passing-school-buses-1.10322222
Here in Wantagh, some view stop signs, cell phone use and school bus laws as optional - in our local neighborhood streets. Years ago I, or rather mine and the neighbor kids, experienced the Washington thing firsthand. It was very scary to say the least.
I'd love to see some type of advocacy or pro-activity from Wantagh SD in getting bus cameras written into our bus contracts (at no contract increases
).
