  2. Child Pedestrian Safety Rules • Most pedestrian deaths and injuries are traffic related. Children from birth to two are more likely to be hurt in driveways, parking lots and on sidewalks. • By adhering to the following tips parents can help teach their children and remind themselves about child pedestrian safety rules.

  3. 1. Cross the street at the corner or at a crosswalk, if there is one, and obey all traffic signals. • 2. Walk on sidewalk; if there is no sidewalk; walk on the left side of the street facing oncoming traffic. • 3. Make sure your children walk with an adult until they are at least 10 years old. • 4. Only cross in front of a school bus when the driver says it is safe. Do not cross behind the bus or where the driver can’t see you. • Hold your child’s hand when you cross the street. Look left, right, and left again before you cross and keep looking both ways until you reach the other side.

  4. 6. If you walk when it is dark, wear light-colored clothing or clothing with reflective material so drivers can see you. A flashlight is also a good idea. • 7. If a toy or a pet goes out into the street, show proper safety procedures for getting it back. • 8. When you are outside playing, play in a backyard or playground away from • the street or parking lots.

  5. Remember to teach your children danger zones around a vehicle; near the doors, the front and the back. • Always remember to properly strap your child in an appropriate car seat • Remember your child is the most precious cargo!
