Drivers, lights around schools mean slow down

As I was driving on Mount Vernon Road going toward All Saints School, I noticed the school zone light flashing. Apparently the driver behind me didn't want to slow down, so he honked at me. As soon as he was able, he zipped around me only to be stopped by a red light.
What was the big rush? You weren't going to the hospital, just Drug Town. Didn't you get the news about the flashing lights around schools and how you can be ticketed?
