School zones are put in place to help ensure the safety of children going to and from schools and walking around schools.
Drivers are responsible for maintaining safety and awareness in a school zone. All children deserve a safe school environment, including both in and around their school.
Keep your eyes on the road and our mind on the task at hand. We are navigating a large vehicle in close proximity to small children.
Don't let the fact that you are a little sleepy, distracted by your cell phone or thinking of the upcoming things you have to do cloud your mind from staying aware.
Show respect for the crossing guards who have the legal authority to halt traffic in order to let students cross the street safely.
Most of us would be devastated if we were to cause injury to any person, but especially so if it were a child. Nothing is more precious than the life of child.
So tomorrow and everyday, please leave early enough to slow down and take the time needed to ensure everyone arrives at their destination safely.
