As the dark nights close in, roads become increasingly dangerous for children and families.
Brake, the road safety charity recommends families take the following simple steps to ensure you and your children stay as safe as possible:
- Plan your route. Before you set off, think hard about where you are going and how you are going to get there.
- Always stay on the pavement and cross roads at the safest possible places, such as pelican crossings.
- Hold hands with your children for as much of your journey as possible.
- Always stop, look and listen before crossing a road.
