Miami Gardens enforces strict speeding laws in school zones with new ordinance

Speeding in school zones is no longer tolerated in Miami Gardens, as the city enforces a strict new ordinance aimed at enhancing public safety. During the recent City Council meeting, officials emphasized the importance of this initiative, which aims to curb dangerous driving behaviors that contribute to accidents, particularly in residential neighborhoods and near schools.

The ordinance, which took effect immediately after a 30-day warning period, utilizes photo enforcement to catch speeders. Drivers caught exceeding the speed limit will receive automatic tickets, with violations reviewed by a designated individual to ensure accuracy. City leaders made it clear that the community has been well-informed about this change, with announcements made at council meetings, on local media, and through direct mailings.

"We want to ensure that everyone is aware of this law," stated a council member, highlighting the city's commitment to public safety. The message is clear: speeding in school zones will not be tolerated, and the city is taking proactive steps to protect its residents and children.

In addition to the enforcement announcement, the council also promoted the upcoming fourth annual Miami Gardens Youth Music Festival, showcasing the city’s dedication to community engagement and youth programs. As Miami Gardens moves forward, the focus remains on prioritizing safety and fostering a vibrant community.
