When What Where
Watch Your Speed on Butler
Don’t forget that the speed limit on Butler has been reduced to 30 MPH at all times! A radar/display system has been installed to help remind people to check
their speed and slow down after coming around the curve from First Street.
STOP for Pedestrians in Walkways!
Use special caution as the visitors hit our streets and beaches. REMEMBER,
it is Georgia State Law that vehicles MUST stop for any pedestrian in a marked cross-walk! Use your flashers and blinkers and help the pedestrians and other drivers watch out, because
a stopped vehicle may make it difficult for someone driving in the next lane to see pedestrians, especially children! Pass stopped cars with caution
Be smart! Be safe! Be friendly and
courteous! It could be YOUR kids or grandkids at risk!
