This week, the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office will be participating in the Florida Sheriffs Task Force “Operation School Zone Safety” in school zones across Volusia County.

April 22 – 26 is School Zone Safety Week in Volusia County

The 5-day safety operation runs Monday through Friday and will focus on violations including speeding and passing school buses.

The operation is designed to enhance student safety and educate drivers about the traffic laws that apply in school zones. While extra deputies will be concentrating their efforts in these areas during this operation, enforcement will continue throughout the school year.

Information on the number of warnings, citations and any arrests made during this operation will be provided by the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office after it’s completed.
