School's Back In Session - Tips for Avoiding Accidents & Tickets

As many of you know, it's that time of year again. Children are back in school and school zones are being enforced throughout Clark County. Speeding in a school zone is not only dangerous, but it can be costly. In Clark County, if you are caught speeding in a school zone, your fine could exceed well over $500.00. If you have an accident as a result of speeding in a school zone, your fine could exceed over $800.00. In addition to a ticket, you may also face points against your driving record which can lead to increased insurance rates or even the suspension of your driver's license. The easiest way to avoid an accident or speeding ticket is to slow down, especially when children are present. Obey the traffic safety laws and keep Nevada's children safe.

  1. I think every driver should realize that they have to slow down when they reach school zones. Those that get speeding or careless driving tickets are simply irresponsible drivers. What if their children would be involved in an accident because of some speeder in school zones? I don't think they would like it either, so why the rush?
