I'll put it this way... and be blunt also...
Lets say the school zone is 300m (from start to finish)... 40km/h means it takes 27 seconds to pass by the school zone... 60km/h means it takes 18 seconds to pass by the school zone... For the sake of 9 seconds of your life (which must be O-So-Inconvenient) you're happy to increase the risk of hitting a child in front of a school?? Sure - it's up to the parents to supervise, but kids are unpredictable... If a young whippersnapper was to step out in front of you, you will have travelled further before you react, it will take longer distance to stop... to cut 9 seconds off your trip??? For me it's a no-brainer... Do the advised 40km/h speed... Don't Complain... For the safety of MY kids... make up your 9 seconds somewhere else...
