School Zone Enforcement

The Spokane Police Department (SPD) has issued a reminder to the community that school zones are under strict enforcement as the new school year starts. Officer Daniel Strassenberg emphasized the importance of adhering to speed limits and other traffic regulations near schools. This enforcement initiative aims to enhance safety for children commuting to and from school. SPD encourages drivers to remain vigilant and cautious in school zones, particularly during peak drop-off and pick-up times. The department's proactive approach reflects its commitment to protecting vulnerable road users.

As the academic year progresses, SPD will continue to monitor compliance in these areas. Officers will be present to ensure that traffic laws are followed to prevent accidents and promote safety. Community cooperation is crucial in making school zones safe for all students.
