Pay extra attention to children walking or on bicycle as they may unexpectedly cross the road.
School’s out for summer and the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary (RNC) wants everyone to have a safe and enjoyable break. Motorists should slow down in residential areas, especially around playgrounds or areas where children frequently gather. Pay extra attention to children walking or on bicycle as they may unexpectedly cross the road. Teach your child that a stranger is anyone they do not know, even if that person is friendly, and they should never enter the house or car of a stranger, and never to let a stranger into the house. Children should know their full name, home address, and a parent or guardian’s phone number. Also, monitor and understand your child’s online activity and keep an open dialogue about harmful behaviour.
