School Zone Enforcement

The Spokane Police Department (SPD) reminds residents to adhere to school zone regulations as the new academic year begins. With children returning to school, the SPD Traffic Unit is focusing on enforcement in areas surrounding Rogers High School, Longfellow, and Garry Middle School. Recent operations included multiple traffic stops for speeding and cell phone use while driving in school zones. The enforcement efforts aim to safeguard students and promote safe driving behavior among motorists. This initiative reflects the SPD's commitment to community safety during the school year.

The department encourages parents and guardians to discuss traffic safety with children. Compliance with traffic laws is crucial in preventing accidents and ensuring a safe environment. Community involvement remains a vital component in achieving these safety goals.
