School Zone Enforcement

The Spokane Police Department (SPD) has issued a reminder to the community that school zones are under active enforcement as the new school year begins. Officer Daniel Strassenberg from the Public Information Office stressed the importance of this enforcement for the safety of children traveling to and from school. The SPD Traffic Unit will monitor designated school zones diligently during this period. As students return to schools, the SPD aims to prevent accidents and ensure safe travel for children. This initiative reflects the department's commitment to community safety and proactive measures to protect vulnerable road users.

By enforcing traffic rules, the SPD hopes to deter speeding and unsafe driving behaviors in school zones. Local families are encouraged to remain vigilant while driving in these areas. The enforcement efforts are crucial for fostering a secure environment for children as they resume their educational activities.
