SAFETY TIPS FOR PARENTS
WHEN YOUR CHILD IS A PEDESTRIAN
It is important for children to be alert and know the safety
rules for pedestrians. Here are some good discussion points:
-
If there are no sidewalks, walk
facing traffic.
-
Stop, look, and listen when
approaching an intersection.
-
Look left, right, then left again
before crossing the street.
-
Stop at the curb before crossing
the street.
-
Cross the street only at the
corner.
-
If there is a street light, cross
only when the light is green. Do not cross on a yellow light.
-
Watch for cars that might be
turning.
-
Do not walk between parked cars.
-
If a ball or toy rolls into the
street, tell at adult.
-
Walk with an adult if possible. If
that is not possible, always walk with another young person.
-
If you walk to and from school,
walk the same route so your parents will know where to find you.
-
If the weather gets bad when you
are walking to or from school, walk slowly and carefully so you
won’t fall or get hurt.
-
NEVER ride with a stranger,
even if the weather is very bad!
