- If there is no payment, walk on the right hand side of the road so that you can see the traffic coming towards you.
- Always walk one behind the other when there is a heavy traffic. Do not rush.
- Do not behave in the street as you do in the playground.
While Crossing
- Cross the road at a zebra crossing, traffic light crossings aor at traffic, islands or where there is a police officer or a traffic warden.
- Look for traffic in all directions and listen.
- Cross when there is a safe gap and you are sure there is enough time.
While Cycling
- Look behind before starting off, turming right or left, overtaking, or stopping and make sure it is safe.
- Give a clear arm signal to show what you intend to do.
- Always keep both hands on the handlebars unless you are giving a signal or changing gears.
