March 26, 2010, Newsletter Issue #283: Back To School Safety - Walking and Biking

Tip of the Week

Even if you don´t ride in a motor vehicle, you still have to protect yourself. Because of minimal supervision, young pedestrians face a wide variety of decisions making situations and dangers while walking to and from school. Here are a few basic safety tips to follow:

•Mind all traffic signals and/or the crossing guard -- never cross the street against a light, even if you don´t see any traffic coming.
•Walk your bike through intersections.
•Walk with a buddy.
•Wear reflective material...it makes you more visible to street traffic.
