New Jersey Initiates Back-to-School Road Safety Campaign

The New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development has launched a statewide campaign, "School's Back, Slow Down in the Zone — Get Kids & Guards Safely Home," to enhance safety for students and school crossing guards. This initiative urges motorists to reduce speed and remain vigilant in school zones, following previous incidents of crossing guard fatalities and injuries. The campaign aims to prevent accidents and protect vulnerable individuals during the back-to-school period.
