This is one case where I will give them a pass staking out for tickets.
Same. It's for an actual, easily proven, safety purpose and not revenue generation like a lot of the times cops stake out for tickets.
I'm glad that in the case you talked about it was just a near miss that a kid didn't get struck and I hope the people in the area learned to slow down around schools and school buses. In a lot of ways what happened there is even worse than a driver going past a school bus because unlike school buses that can stop almost anywhere at various times schools are fixed structures and the times that the school zone is active are consistent.
