"I hope you don't have children with that attitude. I do. If someone was speeding and ran over my daughter..."

I obey speed limits, but 20 mph school zones with not a person in sight, let alone a child, make me think the morons who set school zone speed limits are more interested in collecting traffic fines then the safety of children. They use the sickening mantra of "It's for the children." to justify their little power grab.

Pathetic.

She was dropping her own child off at school, so it's pretty likely there were other kids around.

On a driver's license written test, they had a question, I don't know it verbatim but it goes like this: Are slow school zone speed limits in effect on Monday thru Friday; Saturday and Sunday; or all of the above?

I missed that one. I said Monday thru Friday. They told me that children play in the school yard playground, even on the weekend. I have never forgotten that.

No speeding in school zones...ever.
