Here's some

back to school reminders!

Driver tips:

SLOW DOWN - especially in
residential neighborhoods & school zones.

• STOP - for flashing school buses!
• Take time to LOOK for kids at intersections, medians or curbs.
• Enter or exit driveways & alleys carefully.
• Reduce distractions inside your car to focus on road.

NO texting or talking on phone when driving.

 Parents talk to your kids & ensure:

• Kids cross the street with an adult until at least 10 years old.
• Kids cross the street at corners, using traffic signals and crosswalks.
• NEVER run out into street or cross in between parked cars.
• Walk in front of bus ONLY after driver gives OK & ONLY after looking both ways.
• Promote safety programs to raise awareness.
