300 block of Josephine Street near 3 rd Avenue
As you are leaving the Cherry Creek (North Shopping District) be aware as you turn right onto Josephine street (heading North) there is a cop on a motorcycle continually pulling motorists over for not obeying the ‘changed speed limit’ due to it being a school zone. I’m all for obeying the posted speed especially in a school zone but the catch here is this: The posted school zone sign is not a flashing sign and is not visible if another driver is beside you on this overcrowded cramped 3 lane street (Josephine St.) The cops know this and that’s why they lie in wait for you. If the cops/city of Denver are so concerned with the safety of the children in a school zone I wonder why they don’t have flashing signs. Poor planning on their part or was that on purpose. We have all ‘flashing’ school zone signs in the Burbs. This allows for motorists to take notice and adjust their speeds accordingly. Most of Denver’s school zone signs do not ‘flash’. Be aware! God help the kid’s in these areas as they are not fully protected.
