Just do 25 mph and play it safe regardless of time of day.

My one speeding ticket was because I assumed if the speed limit was 25 MPH when school was in session then it was something different when school was not in session.

It's time to move somewhere where you don't get to school at 6:49!

No one does the speed limit on my street (posted at 25 mpg). I'm taking a petition to the Charlottesville city council soon!

Out here at least they say "When school is in session". Not that it helps.

But if it's 25mph all the time, then why even mention school?? It's misleading....

If you are able to read all those times - you would have to be under the speed limit.

Over here the sign under clarifies the sign above - like on top no parking sign - under 9-17 - suppose you have same system.

Anyway that sign w 6 lines is ridicilous - if not dangerous.
The last one on bottom tells you to ignore all above when there¨s no school that day.

Oh that sign above is a photoshop thing, I'm sure. It's a joke. I don't think anyone would put up a sign that stupid. But I've been wrong before....

 

[fronobulax]

Real sign.

The Massachusetts state speed limit for a school zone in 20MPH. A signpost like Frono's example above would indicate that the limit is 15MPH during the posted school hours when school is in session. At other times, it'd be 20MPH (in Massachusetts).

Al's original posted picture would be meaningless in Massachusetts, but could be real in another state where the school zone limit is 30MPH, say. Of course, that's an absolutely ridiculous (and funny) list of enforced times. I presume it's a joke, otherwise someone should lose their job.

And, Fro, what was the ticket for?

 

[davismanLV]

Real sign.

See? That one I can believe, because we have them near us!! That other one is bullcrap.....

Speeding. 43 in a 25 zone that I thought was a 35 zone.
