Overview
- Automated enforcement covers nine schools and follows posted schedules that include 30 minutes before classes, the full school day, and 30 minutes after dismissal even if flashers are not on.
- Violations are triggered only when drivers exceed the school-zone limit by more than 11 mph, such as 46 mph or above in a 35 mph zone.
- Citations will be sent by mail with recipients given 30 days to pay the $100 civil fine or request a hearing.
- Police say many drivers were surprised during the warning phase because they relied on flashing lights rather than the posted times, and they urge attention to signage.
- The most warnings were recorded near St. Vincent Ferrer (927) and Pine Grove (624), and other Palm Beach County cities use similar cameras as Greenacres begins a 30‑day warning period on Jan. 8.
