Arround School Zones Keep Driving Safe - Huon.cloutier

It is that time of the year when drivers have to deal with an abundance of children walking to and from school. To avoid accidents, drivers should take more care and be extra cautious and alert especially while driving around schools. Parents should keep certain rules in mind while walking and driving their kids to school. It is always advisable to walk your child to the bus stop and back.

If you ride to school in a school bus, you should always be on time. You should stay in your seat and avoid pushing and shoving. Teen drivers should take extra precautions while driving to school and back. Talking and texting on the cell phone while driving should be strictly prohibited. Any type of earphones should not be used while driving. A very simple and important safety driving tip is to remember to pay full attention. Many accidents occur due to driver inattention and carelessness like applying makeup, changing the radio station and focusing on other things rather than vehicles and pedestrians in the area.

Why should this particular time of the year be any different to any other time?

It isn't., as you spotted! This chap keeps coming up with recycled and obvious advice on a variety of forums - no idea why he does it but it seems harmless enough.

Nice to hear from you, DD.

Holland is normally ahead of the UK.

In Holland they have dispensed with road safety as we know it and have the cars driving through the school playground, or so I learn from radio 4.

It makes the drivers go very slow.
