School zone safety enforcement increases

Overview

Law enforcement agencies in Switzerland and Canada are increasing surveillance and safety measures in school zones to coincide with the start of the new school year.

In Valais, Switzerland, the Cantonal Police are participating in the national ‘Luege | Brämse | Halte’ (Look | Brake | Stop) campaign. This initiative focuses on vehicle speed and timely braking near schools, residential areas, and public transport stops to protect vulnerable children.

In Quebec, Canada, the Sûreté du Québec has announced increased surveillance from August 24 to September 11. Authorities are reminding motorists that fines are doubled in school zones during designated periods and emphasizing regulations regarding school buses, pedestrians at crosswalks, and instructions from crossing guards.
