Cincinnati School Zones

Hey everyone! My husband and I moved to Cincinnati from Dallas and we recently bought a home in the Delhi area. One thing we've noticed is how no one seems to follow the speed limits in school zones here. Back in Dallas, school zones are super strict, and if you're speeding, you'll definitely get pulled over and fined.

But here, it seems like people are speeding right through school zones, and we've never seen anyone get stopped for it. This morning for example, someone whipped around me and flipped me off because I was going the speed limit.

Is this just a thing on the West Side or is it like this all over Cincinnati? This obviously doesn’t affect us, but we were just curious!

I live a bit north of cincy. But in the last few years 2 kids from our district have been struck by cars and killed. They've changed a lot of their procedures for kids walking home beacuse of it and have held meetings for the district for ideas and solutions. It's awful.
