Road Safety - Children

Do you remember the green cross code?

 
Think First
Find a safe place to cross then stop
Stop
Stand on the pavement near the kerb
Use you eyes and ears
  Look all around for traffic and listen
  Wait till it's safe to cross
  If traffic is coming let it pass. Look all around again

  Look and listen again
  When there's no traffic near, walk straight across the road

Arrive alive
Remember the green cross code
