It’s National School Bus Safety Week. Remember red lights mean STOP. Do not pass a bus when its red lights are flashing, even if there is room to drive by. This applies to all road types, including two-lane, multi-lane, and divided highways. #SchoolBusSafety #SchoolBusSafetyWeek

Large trucks and buses need more room to make turns. If a large vehicle is stopped at an intersection or about to turn right, you should step back from the curb and wait for them to turn before continuing ahead.  Learn more about how pedestrians can help keep #OurRoads safe: https://lnkd.in/gHUqCVgR #OurRoadsOurSafetyWeek #horizontransport #towaway #driveaway #rvtransport

It’s #OperationSafeDriverWeek! Transportation safety is an imperative to our new initiative, Move Our World Forward, and it takes all of us to keep our roads safe. As we celebrate, here are four safety tips for pedestrians. Tip #1: Use a crosswalk whenever possible. Remember the age-old saying, ‘look left, right, then left again”? Make sure you can see oncoming traffic from both directions, and try to make eye contact with the drivers before stepping into the road. Tip #2: Keep your eyes up and your phone away. Avoiding distractions doesn’t just apply to drivers. Crashes and fatalities due to distracted walking are a real concern. Stay aware of your surroundings by looking up and not down at your phone. Tip #3: Know which direction to travel safely based on modality. If you’re walking or running and there is no sidewalk available, you should face oncoming traffic. If you’re biking or on a scooter, travel in the same direction as traffic and follow all posted traffic laws. Tip #4: Teach your children safe walking habits. Be a role model for safe pedestrian behavior. Whether it’s getting on the school bus or running after a ball that rolled into the street, it’s incredibly important that our children understand how to stay safe near traffic. https://lnkd.in/eHt-U5sw
