Child Vehicle And Road Safety: Trivia Quiz!

The safest way to cross a road is at a pedestrian crossing. Pedestrian crossings are specifically designed for pedestrians to safely cross the road, with features such as traffic lights, zebra crossings, or pedestrian bridges. They provide a designated area for pedestrians to cross, ensuring that drivers are aware of their presence and are more likely to stop or yield. Crossing between parked cars or at a bus stop can be risky as it may obstruct visibility for both pedestrians and drivers, increasing the chances of accidents.
