Episode Details

Fresno just dropped school zone speed limits from 25 to 20 mph — a bold move that could save lives. Officials say even a 5 mph drop gives drivers more time to react and kids a better chance to get out of the way. Ahead of California’s 2031 goal, city leaders are urging drivers to put phones down, watch sidewalks, stop at crosswalks, and heed crossing guards — because being late is better than being tragic. Eight hundred signs already replaced, with $400K invested — students say it’s long overdue, especially after hearing stories like a near-fatal crash caused by speeding. The mayor vows this change will prevent future tragedies, and police presence near schools is ramping up too. And yes — tickets in these zones now carry double fines. Slow down. Stay alert. Kids’ lives depend on it.
