WA Lawmaker Wants Seat Belts Installed In School Buses

(Olympia, WA)  --  A Washington state lawmaker says she's working on a bill that would require installation of seat belts in school buses.  Representative Gina McCabe of Goldendale tells KING-5 her plan calls for three-point seat belts that are similar to what's installed in passenger cars.  The measure also calls for school districts to install cameras on school buses, to catch drivers who illegally pass buses that are stopped with red lights flashing.  McCabe says she'll introduce the bill during the next legislative session, which starts in January.
