Passing target: 80% (40/50)
You drive on a street with a posted limit of 35 mph. You enter a school zone, and the lights on the school zone speed limit sign are flashing. What is your maximum lawful speed?
An enlarged yellow lamp in a dark housing is labeled as the upper-beacon detail of a school-zone sign. The card states that the sign lights are flashing and the street limit before the zone was 35 mph.
Correct answer: 20 mph
Why
Utah law sets a 20 mph maximum in a reduced-speed school zone, which runs from a school zone speed limit sign with operating lights to the end school zone sign. The lights operate while children go to or leave school at the start and end of the school day. Fines for speeding in a school zone are higher than normal, and a speed of 30 mph or more there is a misdemeanor. Watch for children and crossing guards all through the zone.
