Back to School: What All Drivers Need to Know by COYS RENT-A-CAR
September doesn’t just mean back to classrooms — it also means busier roads. Even if you’re not a parent, the school run can affect your daily journey.
Expect heavier traffic
Morning and afternoon peaks get busier once schools reopen. In Spain, timetables can vary depending on daylight and weather, so finishing times are not always predictable.
Plan ahead, allow extra time, and be patient.
Recognising school buses
School transport in Spain is marked with a special pictogram 
.
They also have stricter speed limits — 10 km/h lower than other vehicles.
When these buses stop, children may step into the road unexpectedly or run to catch the bus if late.
Always give school buses extra space and attention.
Practical rules of the road:
● 
Slow down near a stopped school bus.
● 
Watch for children crossing or moving unpredictably.
● 
If the bus signals to pull out, let it re-join traffic — don’t overtake.
Courtesy is not only polite — it prevents accidents.
