Atlanta Police Ramp Up Enforcement in School Zones

Atlanta-area kids went back to school this week, and police officers ramped up enforcement of crosswalk and speed laws in Atlanta school zones on Wednesday. Unfortunately, drivers often exceed the posted speed limit in school zones - despite the fact that there are children present. The APD implemented this special operation in order to remind drivers that ignoring driving laws near school zones can result in tragedy.

In 2009, 150 pedestrians were killed in auto accidents in Georgia and tens of thousands more were injured. A significant percentage of those victims were children traveling to and from school. If your child has been injured in a crosswalk or anywhere in a school zone, you deserve compensation for your child's medical bills, pain and suffering, and emotional trauma.
