School Zone Enforcement

The Spokane Police Department (SPD) has issued a reminder to residents that school zones are now under active enforcement as the new school year begins. Officer Daniel Strassenberg from the Public Information Office stated that the increase in children traveling to and from school necessitates heightened vigilance. The SPD Traffic Unit is committed to monitoring these areas to ensure the safety of young pedestrians. Residents are urged to adhere to speed limits and other traffic regulations within school zones. This initiative aims to prevent accidents and promote safe travel around educational institutions.

Adhering to these laws not only protects children but also fosters a culture of safety in the community. The enforcement will continue throughout the school year as part of the department's ongoing efforts to enhance public safety. Community cooperation is vital in achieving these goals.
