The road in question has a speed limit of 40 km/h from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on school days, showing the police car camera that it was just before 8:30 am when the attack was committed.
“School zones exist for a crucial reason – to keep our children safe,” said QPS Road Policing and Regional Support Command, Chief Inspector Garrath Channels.
“Driving with these extreme speeds near children is unforgivable and are not tolerated by the police.
“Speed shortens the reaction time and makes it more difficult to stop quickly when a child crosses the road as he goes to school or leaves.
“We all have to play our role in protecting the most vulnerable road users, especially our children.”
