It depends on the location of the school.
If a special speed limit is in effect during school hours and there are no children present, then you are still held responsible for following the special limit.

whatever the black and white posted speed limit signs say. the school speed limit yellow signs are for during certain school hours . some may be all day if it is a city school and in a rural school district it may just be for 2 or 3 hours in the morning and afternoon. if there are no other signs posted other than the yellow school speed limit signs with the times on them then after those hours it is 55 mph

in ohio, school zones is 20 mph. in w.va, its 15 mph. when those lights are flashing, the speed limit is the school zone speed until u get out of the school zone......kids or no kids. do u want to risk a major fine for speeding in a school zone? if ur not at the school zone speed limit before u hit the beginning, in this area, u will get cited for it. the cops up here are very strict in school zones.

In California, it is whatever limit is posted on the road before the school zone.
What many people forget is that the law regarding the school zone speed limits is that this applies 24 hour a day, seven days a week.

The published velocity decrease became into 25mph, so he technically wasn't breaking the regulation. even though, on the time he became into driving by there have been lots of persons around and he hit somebody. He became into got here across reliable because of the fact even nonetheless he became into on the linked fee decrease, it relatively is referred to as a decrease, no longer a "you have the main suitable topersistent this quickly in any respect situations" decrease. because of the fact which you're conversing a pair of school zone, you're conversing approximately having topersistent 25 mph by an extremely short distance.... via going 35mph you may shave off 10 seconds of driving time? purely flow 25 and be risk-free.

Every state is different and should have signs posted to inform you of the speed limit and times that those speed limits are enforced. If they do not then you need to call your local streets dept. and let them know because they are responsible for putting up those signs and maintaining them.
