LAREDO ISD reminds drivers: cell phone use prohibited in school zones; pedestrians have right of way
Summary
District staff reminded drivers that cell phone use is prohibited in school zones and stressed that pedestrians have the right of way at the newly installed crosswalk.
District staff reminded drivers about school-zone rules and the pedestrian right of way as students return to campus.
“We remind you to slow down, in our school zones. We remind you that, the use of cell phones are prohibited. We remind you that, in crosswalks, especially such as this 1, this newly installed crosswalk, you know, the pedestrian has the right of way,” Staff member (SEG 028) said, listing specific behavioral expectations for drivers.
Speakers framed the guidance as routine but urgent given increased pedestrian traffic at the start of the school year; no enforcement or penalty changes were announced.
