The picture shows a school crossing. Once the reduced school-zone limit is in effect, what is the maximum legal speed?

Answer options

Why

A school zone carries a 15 mph limit while the restriction is in effect, such as during school hours when children are around. Slow down and watch closely for students and crossing guards. Stop and wait whenever a crossing guard holds up a STOP sign or children are in the crosswalk.
