Back to school season means more children are walking and biking near streets in Culver City. As a driver, staying alert in school zones is one of the most important things you can do. Watch for reduced speed limit signs, and always slow down when approaching crosswalks. Put your phone away and keep both hands on the wheel. Kids often move quickly and may not look before stepping off the curb.
California law requires drivers to stop when a school bus has its red lights flashing. This goes for traffic moving in both directions unless a median divides the road. Pay attention to crossing guards and follow their directions. Being patient during busy drop-off and pick-up hours helps keep students safe as they travel to and from school in areas like Los Angeles County.
Many newer vehicles come with safety features that can help you stay aware while driving. Lane departure warnings, automatic braking, and blind spot monitoring are just a few options available in our new inventory at Culver City Volvo Cars. Stop by our location at 11201 Washington Blvd, Culver City, CA to see how these features work and take a test drive today.
