Safe Around Schools
Being a Safe Driver at School Crossings
❑ Drivers must not overtake a vehicle stopping/stopped at the School Crossing.
❑ Keep the School Crossing Clear. Do not stop your car on the crossing. Blocking the crossing is not only against the law, but also dangerous for everyone.
❑ Drivers must stop if a child or adult is about to cross or is crossing while flags are displayed, even if there is no Crossing Supervisor.
❑ Drivers must stop if a handheld “Stop” sign is being displayed.
❑ Drivers must proceed only when all children and adults, including the School Crossing Supervisor are clear of the crossing.
❑ Drivers must approach at a speed slow enough to stop safely, if necessary.
❑ Drivers should always watch out for children near schools. Getting Children to school safely is everyone’s job!
