When class is in session in Nashville, it can mean increased traffic in the mornings and afternoons.
If you pass through school zones during your daily commute, it’s a good time to refresh your knowledge of school zone laws. Driving safely through these areas not only decreases your risk of being involved in an accident, but it also reduces your chances of getting an expensive citation.
Three school zone-related laws that all Tennessee drivers should know include:
School zones are vital for helping students get to and from class safely, and local police departments and sheriff’s offices watch them carefully for drivers who violate traffic laws.
Drivers should always be aware of the presence of pedestrians, whether they’re passing through school zones, intersections, or residential areas.
