NORTH PORT, Fla. -- Police in North Port are making sure you remember the rules of the road by calling out drivers on social media.
They posted two photos on Twitter Tuesday, saying they pulled over the drivers for speeding through marked school zones. One was near Heron Creek Middle School, the other near Toledo Blade Elementary.
There will be increased surveillance across Southwest Florida to make sure drivers are stopping for buses and obey speed limits.
