If they cross a large intersection and walk to the middle of the crosswalk, the indicator light of the crosswalk becomes a red light. Do n’t grab a motor vehicle on both sides, and do n’t rush back, but stand inside the yellow triangle box inside the zebra crossing. This is the “safe island” for pedestrians crossing the street twice, and then cross the street when the green light is on; Do n’t ride too fast, and do n’t chase each other. Ride a bicycle on a road without mandatory separation from motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles. Be careful not to cross the white markings arbitrarily. If you encounter obstacles in front, you need to borrow the motor lane. , We must pay attention to observe whether there is a motor vehicle driving behind, and then take the road to drive. In addition, children should also be careful not to chase and frolic on the road, do not use umbrellas to ride bicycles on rainy days.

It is worth noting that in recent years, there have been many accidents involving children drowning by migrant workers, and parents should pay attention to them. Experts said that foreign children are prone to accidents. The main reasons are as follows: First, the parents of migrant workers are too busy to work and have no time to take care of their children. Second, the subjective security awareness is not strong enough, and security precautions and security education are not enough. The third is that foreign children do not understand the local environment, including the depth of the river and other environmental factors. In addition, some parents leave their children at home to take care of the elderly. Children with insufficient safety awareness do not heed the advice of the elderly, and unauthorized outing activities can also cause unimaginable consequences.
