*Edit: Ah, here's the quote from the Monroe councilman I had in mind: "...Nalitt said Monroe has four grade crossings with about 180 buses crossing the tracks daily and having this new line would pose an increased safety risk for the buses." To my knowledge, NJT has never had a schoolbus/train accident since it began operations.*
Seems to me, ALL buses are required by law to come to a full stop, within 50 feet of a rail crossing, and look both ways before proceeding, even at obviously abandoned crossings such as the FIT between Freehold and Farmingdale. Mr. Nalitt should get out more often. These buses he speaks of stop at these four crossings each and every time they cross. A violation of this law can result in loss of your "P" and "S" endorsements on your CDL, even loss of the license altogether, causing your job to go away
