Be Street Smart From The Start
Traveling in school neighborhoods can be stressful for everyone. Practice school zone safety as part of your back to school preparations.
When walking, riding or rolling in school zones: *Always cross in the crosswalk. *When preparing to cross the street, look left, right, front, and behind. *Before crossing, wait for all traffic to stop, including turning vehicles.
When driving in school zones: *Keep speeds below 25 MPH when driving in school zones. *Always stop at stop signs. Do not roll through; it's the law. *Yield to people waiting to cross at marked crosswalks and street corners.
