As the school year kicks off tomorrow, our School Resource Officer, Travis Mitchell, reminds drivers to be patient as commuting routines change for the fall.
If possible, avoid school zones this week while parents and new drivers acclimate to new schedules and driving habits.
School busses will begin routes this week. When following a bus, slow down when the yellow caution lights illuminate and prepare to stop. If a bus is stopped with red lights flashing, the law requires drivers to stop on both sides of the roadway. The only exception is on East Rollins (from Morley St to Hwy 63) and North Morley (from Coates St to Hwy 24), which qualify as divided highways. Use caution when proceeding in these areas.
Watch for children during school commute times in the morning and afternoon, and help us get our students home safely!
