What is the penalty for people who are deliberately driving too fast through a school zone area, when the light is blinking for 20MPH? Because, this morning, a state trooper heading into town on Franklin St, was going 35MPH through the blinking school zone light, and so were a lot of other people. Also, on Southampton Rd, people are not slowing down for the 20MPH speed zone when the light is flashing. Tractor trailers don’t slow down, nobody slows down. How is this protecting the kids if it’s not enforced? And police officers are allowed to break the laws that they will give you a ticket for? Also, on the way by the Turnpike, people are using the arrow for going straight from the Turnpike to Friendly’s to turn right to go on N Elm, into town. There’s no arrow that says you can make that righthand turn, once you go through the light. Or is that legal to do so, because you’re cutting the corner?
