Lakeland Launches School-Zone Speed Camera Program

The City of Lakeland and the Lakeland Police Department are in the process of activating 14 speed enforcement cameras near eight school entrances. Drivers traveling more than 10 miles per hour over the posted school-zone speed limit while the school-zone flashing lights are active will be found in violation.

To ensure motorists are aware of the new program, a warning period will run through the month of January. During this time, motorists exceeding the posted speed limit will receive warning notices only. The warning notices will be sent by mail to the registered owner of any vehicle recorded traveling more than 10 miles per hour over the posted school-zone speed limit during enforcement hours.
