Play Away From Traffic

Youngsters need a safe place away from moving vehicles. Driveways and alleyways should be discouraged as play areas.

Take time to create an imaginative play area away from the street that has the needed interest and stimulation for encouraging children to play there with their friends. Stress playing away from parked vehicles and encourage games that will keep youngsters off the street.

Go to the Brittany Park Playground or play in the backyard. There are many parks nearby as well. A Cul-de-sac is still a ROAD so avoid playing in the road.

Tips While Riding Your Bicycle

• Bicyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as other motorists.
• Always ride in the same direction as other traffic and keep to the right-hand side of the road.
• ALL traffic regulations, signs, signals and pavement markings apply to bicyclists.
• Always come to a complete stop and look Left-Right-Left again.
• Avoid riding in the dark when possible. If you must ride in the dark wear reflective or lighted clothing and install a bicycle headlight and flashing red taillight on your bike.
• Use hand signals or point when turning.
• Ride in a predictable straight line without a lot of sudden movements.
