What to DO
Look Both Ways
Always stop, look left, right, and left again before crossing the road. Make sure there are no cars, bikes, or other vehicles are coming from either side.
Use Crosswalks
Always Cross the road at designated crosswalks or traffic signs whenever you can. They are like safe passages just for you!
Follow Traffic Signals
Green means go, red means stop. Always wait for the go signal before crossing, even if you’re in a hurry.
What Not To Do
Do not get Distracted
When crossing the road, keep devices like phones and games away. Focus on crossing safely to the other side of the street.
Do not Assume Drivers See You
Even if you think a driver sees you, it’s always safer to make sure. Look both ways and never rush.
Do not Run Between Parked Cars
Running between parked cars can surprise drivers. Stay visible and stick to safe pathways.
SIGNALS
traffic lights
Imagine the traffic light as a robot that tells vehicles and pedestrians when to go and when to stop.
Red Light
Stop
The red light at the traffic light is a traffic signal that seems to say: “Stop right where you are!” It means stop until it turns green.
Wait
When it's red, all cars and people must stop. Wait until it turns green.
Do not cross
Wait a bit and soon it will be your turn to cross - when it turns green. So, red means stop, green means go.
Yellow Light
Wait
When the traffic light turns yellow, it's like a little hint, saying, "Get ready!" It means the light is about to change.
Do not rush
Yellow is preparing us for what's next! Be cautious and get ready to stop or proceed safely.
Just a little
Whether you're stopping or cruising through, yellow signals us to be on our toes!
Green Light
Go
When the traffic light turns green, it signals "Go!" It means it's our turn to move safely.
Proceed
Green means it is your turn to cross the road. Whether on foot, on wheels or bike, it's your time to proceed safely.
Go ahead
When you see the green light, it is your turn to go!
