Summary
Schoolbus Safety Measures Act of 1989 - Amends the Highway Safety Act of 1987 to require the Secretary of Transportation to develop a program for instructing elementary schoolchildren and schoolbus drivers in schoolbus safety measures. Authorizes the use of grant funds to install stop safety arms and mirrors to enable the driver to view the area directly under the front of the schoolbus. Prohibits a State from receiving grant funds under such Act during a fiscal year unless the Governor of the State certifies that each public school in the State will conduct the schoolbus safety programs developed under this Act.
