irreparable racing habit in children.

Racing, over speed / highly risky riding etc should be
watched by children ONLY with Parental Guidance.

kids itself. Parents should take such scenes as an
opportunity to guide them properly.

poor due to mist or some other reason.
• If you are driving at night, get refreshed at regular
intervals by having a face wash or by having a cup of
Coffee or Tea. Some of the co-passengers should
ensure that you are awake.
• There is a practice of keeping the traffic signals in
standby mode during nights and on holidays. It is
highly risky, hence be extra cautious at junctions with

visibility at junctions, curvatures and other parts of the
roads. Hence be cautious about them.

Tennis etc. near Roads are likely to run across the
road carelessly to pick the ball as the ball goes out of
the field. Strict instructions should be given to children
to be very careful while crossing the road to pick the
ball.
• Small children have a tendency to run across or along
the roads, all of a sudden on seeing their parents,
siblings, friends or relatives etc. Hence small children
should be given strict instructions not to do that. Also
try to avoid such circumstances on roads as far as
possible. For example when children return from
school, we should reach the bus stop in advance to
pick them to home. If we reach the Bus stop late,
children may run on seeing us from far.

side, hold on their hand. It should not be the other
