What is the name of your state? CA
I recently was ticketed for speeding in a school zone. It's not an average school zone in that it is a community center that has various tenants, including two preschools and a small prep school. The speed limit for this section of the street is 25 mph although a traffic survey that was done stated it should be set at 30 (it would have been 35 based on the 85% but they took into account feelings of the neighborhood) and the ticket was given on a weekday at 10:15 a.m. There were no children/pedestrians anywhere to be seen at the time.
I have a few questions:
The School Zone sign is located 500 feet from the community center's property line. Would this also be considered the school's property line? The schools are located 1,000 feet, or more, from the sign.
Each of the 3 schools have fences that enclose the portion of the property that they use at the community center. I noticed in a VC I read that if there is a fence enclosing the property of a school a different guideline is used to determine whether there is a speed trap, or not?
