As a driver, you find a lot of activity when you approach a school -- school buses turning, students walking or biking, safety patrol members helping kids cross the street, cars pulling in along the side of the road, and other drivers also dropping kids off. In the parking lot the confusion increases -- kids dart out between parked cars, long lines of cars block parking spaces, and the exit backs up. Sometimes picking up and dropping off kids from school can be chaotic. The reminds you to use caution in . What's a School Zone? The 600-foot school zone is designated by two signs, both 300 feet on either side of a marked crosswalk. The speed limit in a school zone is 20 miles an hour. You should remember that fines are double for traffic violations committed within the school zone. There are four kinds of marked school zones that tell you when you must drive 20:

When children are present
From 8 am to 5:30 pm
When flagged
When flashing

However your school zone is marked, you can trust that if you're taking your kids to school or picking them up, the 20 mile an hour speed limit is in effect -- even if the sign has not yet been flagged.
