Introduction•Rule 4
Child Safety on Pavements and Roads
Young children should not be out alone on the pavement or road (see Rule 7). When taking children out, keep between them and the traffic and hold their hands firmly. Strap very young children into push-chairs or use reins. When pushing a young child in a buggy, do not push the buggy into the road when checking to see if it is clear to cross, particularly from between parked vehicles.
💡Example
Ensure young children are always supervised and kept safe near roads. For instance, when walking with a toddler, hold their hand firmly and position yourself between them and the traffic. If you're using a buggy, never push it into the road to check for traffic, especially when emerging from between parked cars.
