LOVELAND, CO – In just 30 minutes of mobile radar enforcement, Loveland police recorded 50 speed infractions in a single school zone—each driver clocked at 8 mph or more over the posted speed limit.
With school zones designed to protect children and pedestrians, the alarming number of violations underscores the urgent need for drivers to slow down and remain vigilant.
“The math shouldn’t add up, but unfortunately, it does,” said Bill Arnold from Loveland. “Why so many drivers are speeding through school zones is concerning.”
