Explanation
In school zones where children are present, the speed limit is typically 25 MPH unless signs indicate otherwise. This reduced speed helps ensure the safety of children who may be crossing the street or are near the roadway. Lowering your speed in these areas allows for more reaction time to avoid potential accidents.
