BACK TO SCHOOL
TRAFFIC SAFETY
(DUFFERIN COUNTY, ON.)
– The summer season is fast
approaching its end and with it we usher in a new school year. As motorists we now must keep a watchful
eye for children who may be walking or cycling to and from school. Reduced speed limits in Community Safety
Zones near schools will be strictly enforced.
School buses will
be reappearing on our roadways These
motor vehicles stop frequently and appear to drive slowly, but that is
generally because they are adhering to the speed limit. These actions can
frustrate some drivers.
However these vehicles carry our most precious cargo, our
children, and it is for that reason alone, when following a school bus you
must drive patiently and responsibly.
Officers from Dufferin Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police are
reminding the motoring public that passing a stopped school bus with
its’ stop arm out and red lights flashing is an offence which could
cost you $500.00 and 6 demerit points, while speeding fines in a Community
Safety Zone are double the standard fine.
