And so should Montgomery County which makes ZERO effort to enforce the speed limits in school zones.

What? Montgomery County has installed speed cameras almost everywhere - they are ubiquitous. I think every thoroughfare in front of high schools and middle schools have them (East-West by B-CC, Democracy by WJ, Randolph by Wheaton, Mass by Westland, Wilson by Pyle) just off the top of my head. They are working on adding cameras for the ESs, too. How much more enforcement are you looking for?[/quote]

I'm the PP who said there is no enforcement. You do realize that MCPS has dozens of schools, and I'd guess at least 90 percent don't have any kind of speed camera much less periodic police presence to deter commuters from speeding along streets near schools. While I'm happy that there is a speed camera near BCC, there are NONE near any of the elementary schools that feed into BCC. I am specifically referring to North Chevy Chase Elementary, where there was briefly a speed camera - only to have it removed without explanation or return. There are no flashing school lights near NCC. In 10 years living near the school I have never seen police enforcement, whereas I drive near Lafayette all the time in NWDC where there are frequently police monitoring speed and stop sign adherence. And this is all in area that has been inundated by traffic thanks to BRAC. Yes, we need more enforcement, and anyone whose kids walk to school (at NCC and lots of others) would agree.[/quote]
