School crossing zones; expands definition to include higher educational institutions.

Abstract

School crossing zones; institutions of higher education. Expands the definition of "school crossing zone" to include areas surrounding schools where the presence of students reasonably requires a special warning to motorists and provides that the term "school" includes public institutions of higher education and nonprofit private institutions of higher education. Currently, the definition of "school crossing zone" includes only areas surrounding schools where the presence of children requires such warning. The existing provisions of law allowing photo speed monitoring devices to be installed in school crossing zones will apply to any location that meets such expanded definition.

A BILL to amend and reenact ยง 46.2-873 of the Code of Virginia, relating to school crossing zones; institutions of higher education.
