Staying Safe on the Roads
As a teenager, you have more freedom, but staying safe on the roads is essential. Did you know you are more likely to get injured in road accidents than almost any other age group? Here are some key tips to help you stay safe.
Walking Near Roads
Always stop, look, and listen before crossing the road.
Avoid distractions like texting, listening to music, or chatting with friends while walking.
Do not follow others blindly — check for yourself if it is safe to cross.
Watch out for hidden entrances or parked cars that block your view.
Cycling Safety
Always wear a helmet — it can save your life.
Wear bright or reflective clothing to stay visible.
Never listen to music or use your phone while cycling.
Obey traffic signs and lights just like a car would.
Use hand signals to show drivers where you are going.
Taking the Bus
Stand back from the curb while waiting for the bus.
When getting off the bus, wait until it drives away before crossing the road.
Do not let chatting with friends distract you near traffic.
Be extra careful — most bus-related accidents happen before or after riding.
