NAATI CCL Dialogue Legal 05 – School Zone Speeding

Scenario: A police officer pulls over a driver for speeding in a school zone during school hours. The driver believed it was school holidays and explained their misunderstanding.

Officer: Good afternoon, sir. I pulled you over because you were going 55 in a 40 zone. This is a school zone, and it’s active during these hours.

Driver: Oh, I honestly thought school was out today. I didn’t see any kids around, and I assumed it was part of the holiday break.

Officer: Term three is still in session. Even if kids aren’t visible, zones are enforced during posted hours to protect them.

Driver: I see. That’s on me then. I was rushing to get to a meeting and didn’t double-check the school calendar.

Officer: We hear that often. But in built-up areas like this, especially around schools, we really need drivers to slow down and stay alert.

Driver: I completely agree. I’ll make sure to be more cautious and check the signs properly in the future.

Officer: Thank you. I’m going to issue you a fine today. It’s important we stay consistent for everyone’s safety, especially children.

Driver: I accept the fine. I really do appreciate the reminder, even if it’s a tough one.

Officer: That’s good to hear. Remember, these limits are about safety, not punishment. Please be more mindful when driving in communities like this.

Driver: Absolutely. I’ll be more attentive moving forward. Thanks for the fair explanation and for doing your job patiently.

Officer: No problem. Stay safe and enjoy the rest of your day. Drive carefully from here on.

Driver: Will do. Thanks again, officer. Take care.
