Road safety continues to be one of the nation's most serious public health issues—it affects everyone, whether you drive, walk or cycle

We all need to know how to take care of ourselves and respect others on the road. That's why we encourage everyone to get actively involved in understanding road safety. It is important to know:

*How much (or how little) you can drink before you drive .

*The speed limits on your local streets .

*Where you can stop, revive and survive on a long journey .

*How to teach young children road safety skills

We should protect children when they get in the car, whether they were with their parents or in school's bus. So we must follow appropriate actions in order to protect our children's lives. For example,

Be safe in the car or the bus

• We should use the seat belts for children, and the child seat at the back seat is important to protect him when an accident happens.

• We also mustn't let children stand on the back seat. • Before driving the car, we should make sure that all the

doors and windows are closed and don't let children open them or leave them bringing their heads out of the car.

• Children should sit in their own places in the buses of the school.

• In the case of existence a back door for the school's bus, in the case of emergency, be careful that children don't open or get down of it.

• Don't let children get in or down the windows of schools' buses and don't let them through any thing out of them.

The traffic light is a signaling device positioned at a road intersection, Pedestrian Crossing, or other location. Its purpose is to indicate, using a series of colors (Red - Amber - Green), the correct moment to stop, drive, ride or walk, using a universal Color codeTraffic lights for vehicles usually contain three lamps: RED YELLOWand GREEN In some systems, a flashing yellow means that a motorist may go ahead with care if the road is clear, giving way to pedestrians and to other road vehicles that may have priority. A flashing red is been treated as a regular stop sign. A flashing green means that you can go ahead
