Title: Gee, it's nice to have to slow down for school zones again.
Post by: 230RN on January 11, 2021, 06:49:52 PM

There were three school zones on my "back roads" route into Denver when I was commuting and the reports said I70 was abgeclogged.  That sort of conditioned me to hate them.

But I went out erranding today and I realized how nice it was to see a glimmer of normalcy return in the form of the blinking yellows and 20 MPH signs.

20 MPH??

Around here it's either 15 or 25.

Heh. Twenty MPH is just a local reporter's (me) school zone limit.

So I guess 20MPH is an average.

I also chuckled to myself when I realized how "nice" that little return to normalcy was, Woody.
