Establishing speed limits in child care zones

HB 2210 establishes a 15-mile-per-hour speed limit in licensed child care zones, directly affecting drivers near licensed child care facilities. The bill defines a child care zone as all licensed child care property, including grounds and adjacent streets or highways within 125 feet, with signage required by the West Virginia Division of Highways. This applies during child care recess or when children are arriving or departing during opening/closing hours. The measure mirrors existing school zone rules but specifically targets licensed child care centers and Head Start programs, aiming to improve safety in these areas.
