Speeding vehicles in school zones across America is a growing problem because of the lack of proper Signs, Pavement Marking and Flashing lights.
School Zones in America need flashing lights or signs that display Entering School Zone on them, current laws permit pedestrian crossing signs instead of marked School Zones. Speeding Drivers are not aware of being in a School till its too late. Fines can be close to a regular speeding ticket which is unacceptable. Fines for speeding in a DOT Work Zone are $375 and up, plus Hit a worker in a Work Zone face thousands of dollars in fines and jail time. In School Zones there are no laws about hitting a child, mandatory fines and mandatory jail time presently. Work Zone or School zone, Children are just as important as Construction Worker life.
