Burnett Law Office, serving clients throughout the state, is reminding drivers and families to be aware of the unique hazards present during the back-to-school season.
Increased Dangers in School Zones The start of the school year brings more vehicles, buses, and foot traffic to neighborhood streets. Accidents can happen in an instant when drivers are distracted, fail to yield, or ignore posted speed limits. The presence of crossing guards, bike riders, and parents dropping off students can make visibility and reaction time critical.
Burnett Law Office encourages Arizona residents to understand and follow school zone safety laws, which are designed to protect children and prevent collisions. Key reminders include:
-
Obey Reduced Speed Limits – Even a small reduction in speed can greatly improve stopping distance and reaction time.
-
Stay Alert for Pedestrians and Cyclists – Young children may not always look both ways before crossing.
-
Avoid Distractions – Using a phone or adjusting in-car technology can take attention away from the road at critical moments.
-
Follow School Bus Rules – Stopping for buses when lights are flashing is essential to keeping children safe as they board or exit.
Legal Support for Accident Victims If an accident does occur, the consequences can be devastating for victims and their families. Burnett Law Office helps clients understand their legal rights and pursue the compensation they need to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
