LANSING, Mich. — State lawmakers are considering legislation that would add a new, lower level of bright flashing rear lights on new Michigan school buses, WZZM reports.
Nancee Privacky told lawmakers Wednesday that her daughter, Antonia, would have been 14 years old this week if she had not been in her brother’s car when it smashed into the back of a stopped school bus last December. Antonia’s brother Bruce was also killed.
The legislation was met with no opposition Wednesday. If passed, it will be known as the Privacky Law.
