In Texas, I think the End School Zone sign does serve a separate legal 
purpose, beyond establishing the previous speed zone. Use of cell phones 
while driving is prohibited in school zones. (I think we are allowed to 
run over each other due to lack of attention in other areas.) As a general 
rule, a speed zone sign will be found within 50-100 yards of the end of a 
school zone.
