In announcing these figures, Minister of Transportation and Communications John R. Rhodes reminded all motorists that the opening of a new school year presents particular hazards. "The first days back at school are an exciting time for youngsters," Mr. Rhodes warned. "They often become forgetful about the traffic safety rules. Thus, all motorists must be constantly alert when driving in school areas. They must take extra caution where there are parked cars, school crossing zones or playground areas. ''In rural districts, adult drivers must be very cautious when they see a yellow school bus. If the bus is stopped with red signal lights flashing it means children are getting on or off the bus. The onus is on all drivers to see that children cross the road safely." Parents must help too, Mr. Rhodes added. "Check the route your children have to follow to get :o school and discuss any particular hazards with them.And find out what they are learning about traffic safety at school so you can reinforce these messages at home. Let's all do our best to make sure that a child's forgetful moment does not result in a tragedy." d • riving People we know Mr. and.
