My daily commute to work is often made longer by school buses and school

It's gotten so I know exactly where the zones, the children, and the bus

are. Is it adult behavior for me to go faster than 15 in a school zone, or
zoom
past a bus with its red lights flashing, because I *feel* I can do so
safely?


So what is the max speed you can go in a 15 mph school zone?

If there's no reason to go slower or stop - 15 mph. And no faster, even if I
*feel* I can go faster safely.

In similar fashion, if I see a school bus put on the red lights and/or the
little stop sign folds out, I don't try to go by in either direction. Even if I
can plainly see that there are no children who could possibly be in danger from
my car, and I may *feel* I can proceed safely, I don't go until the red lights
are out. Because that's the law and it's the safe way.
