Rayville Police Chief Willie Robinson advised all motorists to be cautious and alert when driving through residential neighborhoods.
“School is back in session and in the mornings and afternoons school buses will be stopping frequently to pick up and drop off children,” the chief said.
He also commented that motorists should remember it is illegal to pass a stopped school bus.
Chief Robinson also advised that speed limits in school zones are strictly enforced.
Chief Robinson would also like to encourage parents to get involved in their children’s academic endeavors.
“A good education will help prepare your children for the future,” he said. “Monitor their school attendance and performance.”
He also reminded parents they can talk with school staff members if their children are having any problems in school.
Chief Robinson encourages all citizens to come by the Rayville Police Department at 900 Harrison St. or to call 728-4431 if you need his help in any way.
