‘I didn’t think it would be that bad:’ Trooper Steve monitors speed in Orlando school zone Trooper Steve On Patrol checks out speed limits near College Park Middle School

Today, I’m going to be monitoring your speed in an active school zone. I’ll be sitting outside College Park Middle School along Maury Road in the city limits of Orlando.
In reality, I hope we see everyone doing at or below the speed limit while it is reduced during school hours.
