  • Terrytyge
    "Most of the time Children are walking down the street in pairs or more. This is good to see. Parents need to understand how necessary it is for children to be safe. Additionally, Parents also need to take the time on teaching kids how to safely ride their bikes and scooters; the correct side of the street to ride on; procedures for riding around pedestrians walking down the street, etc. This not only helps keep their kids safe, also prevents incidents where children, pedestrians, and/or autos have altercations in which someone could get hurt.
