Walking
We are all pedestrians, even if it is just walking short distances. On foot we can be quite vulnerable walking beside or crossing busy roads. It’s important to make sure you can be seen by road users. Always look after any young children in your care near busy roads.
Being seen
Fluorescent clothing lets drivers to see you in daytime or in poor weather.
Children as pedestrians
Children are often at risk from road accidents on their way to and from school.
Older pedestrians
Some older people should also take extra care when dealing with busy roads.
Walking with babies and very young children
Keep your children safe - lead by example and teach them road safety.
