Drivers are reminded that with schools soon back in session, school zone speed limits will be back as well. To help get into the habit of slowing down in speed zones, flashing lights began operating this week. Be aware of the school zones and the reduced speed limit. When a school bus stop arm is extended, vehicles traveling in both directions must come to a complete stop. Drivers cannot pass a school bus when the stop arm is extended. Flashing lights on the bus will also be used.
