Both incidents took place Thursday, Dec. 13. The first occurred on North Salem Road near John Jay High School at about 7:40 a.m., police said. Officers were performing selective enforcement duty in front of the high school when they reportedly observed a vehicle traveling 50 mph in a 25 mph school zone.

The driver was stopped and had a Maine drivers’ license that had expired in July, police said. In addition to receiving a summons for driving without a valid license, a violation, the driver was also issued a ticket for speeding, and the car was towed.

The second incident happened on Elmwood Road near Onatru Farm House at 2 p.m., police said. Police reportedly pulled over a car for traveling 50 mph in a 30 mph zone. Police said they found that the vehicle was registered in Connecticut and its insurance was in force, but the driver admitted she had no license. That car was also impounded, and the driver was issued tickets for speeding and driving without a license.

The following items were also reported by Lewisboro police:
