School Zones, Railways & Work AreasStandalone practice
You enter a school zone. A sign shows a lower speed limit 'WHEN FLASHING,' and its yellow lights are flashing. You do not see any children. What speed limit applies?

Correct answer: The lower school limit, until the sign that marks the end of the zone
Why
Children can run into the street without warning, and they are hard to see between parked cars. In a school zone, slow down, obey all signs, and be ready to stop at any time. Nebraska doubles speeding fines in school zones, and on a road with one lane each way, passing another vehicle in a school crossing zone is against the law.
