Safety tips made for
school trips for kids
Some kids use foot or pedal
ower to get to school, while
thers hop in the school bus or
et a lift from Mom or Dad. Any
/ay is OK, as long as the child’s
afety is always kept in mind.
The National SAFE KIDS
Campaign, a long-term program
j prevent injury to children, of-
;rs the following school trans-
ortation safety tips that could
ave a child’s life.
— Choose the safest route for
ie child. Try to pick the most
irect route, with the fewest
treet crossings. After walking
ie route with the child so that it
ecomes familiar, tell the child
j take this familiar route every
ay.
— Teach a child about all
raffic markings. For instance,
xplain that a flashing “walk”
ign is not an automatic “go”
ignal.
— Direct the child to cross
re street at comers or cross-
walks, not from between parked
ars or behind bushes or buses.
— Warn a child to look left,
ight, and then left again before
tossing the street. . ^ v
— Pick children up at a safe
pot away from the congestion
f cars around the school.
— Make sure kids get out of
re car on the sidewalk closest
3 the school. That way, they
on’t cross the street. Also,
hildren should always get in
nd out of the car on the curb
ide.
— Use seat belts and remove
loose or heavy objects in the car
that could cause injury in a sud-
den stop.
— Children need to wear hel-
mets whenever riding a bike.
— Kids should follow the
rules of the road that apply to all
vehicles.
— Teach children not to ride
bikes at night. Night riding is 20
times as risky as day riding.
When night riding can’t be
avoided, have the child wear re-
flective clothing — and always
use a bike light.
— Don’t allow a child under
age eight to ride a bike to
school. w
— Choose a safe route, which
may not be the same as a safe
walking route. Young cyclists
should avoid streets with a
steady flow of fast-moving
traffic. ~~—
— See to it that the child’s
school has safe areas for bikers
(away from cars and people).
More than 22 million kids
ride on a school bus every morn-
ing. With the safety of so many
at stake, these age-old admoni-
tions are worth repeating to
children:
— Remain seated and keep
the aisles clear.
— Do not throw objects.
— Do not shout or distract the
driver.
— Keep head and arms inside
the bus. %
— Exit after the bus com-
pletely stops.
