Schoolchildren crossing

Be alert wherever school kids are crossing a road. Watch for school buses that are loading or unloading children in front of houses or schools. Come to a complete stop when you see those flashing lights on the school bus and that stop sign flip outward. A child might need to cross the street. Also watch for crossing guards. Obey their stop signs and wait for everyone to clear the cross walk before traveling again.

Drive safely in school zones or wherever children could be standing or walking.

And that’s smart safety!
