When driving through a school zone, what is the speed limit?

15 mph
20 mph
25 mph
30 mph

The correct answer is: 15 mph

The speed limit in a school zone is typically reduced in order to ensure the safety of children in the area. Option B, 20 mph, is a common reduced speed limit for school zones, so it may seem like a likely choice. However, it is important to remember to always double check the posted signs in a school zone, as the specific speed limit may vary. Options C and D are also higher than the typical reduced speed limit for a school zone. It is important to always drive cautiously and be prepared to stop for children or crossing guards in school zones, regardless of the posted speed limit.
