Cell Phone Ban in School Zones

At the April 28, 2008 City Council Meeting, an ordinance was passed to ban cell phone use in active school zones.  This was done to further serve and protect school-aged children traveling to and from school.  This applies only on official school days during the hours of 7 a.m. - 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. - 4 p.m.  Using a hand-held cell phone has the potential to distract the driver. Click here to view the ordinance in its entirety.  School is scheduled to begin on Monday, August 25th for both the Birdville Independent School District and Keller Independent School District.
