Wellimeaning parents
are posing a danger to
their children, according
to Goderich Police Chief
Pat King and Sergeant
Gerry Hilgendorff.
On cotd, rainy or snowy
clays, many parents drive
to the local elementary
schools to pick up their
children so they won't get
wet or catch cold.
However, these parents
often stop on the Opposite
side of the road from the
school and sit in their
cars waiting for their
children to run across
that road to them in front
of traffid. The same holds
eanin _ parents pose d
true when these parents
drop their children off at
the schools. They stop
across from the schools
and let their children Out,
usually on the drivers'
side, expecting them to
run across the road in
front of traffic again.
At Robertson Memorial
Public School, some
parents even block in-
tersections when picking
up or 'dropping off their
children, says Sergeant
Hilgendorf.
Chief King and
Sergeant Hilgendorf
recommend that when
giving children rides
back and forth to school,
parents should park their
cars and escort their
children. across the road;
park on the same side as
the school so the children
don't have to cross the
road at all; or let the
children out on the
passengers' side of the
car, warn them to look
'both ways and then drive
away so other motorists'
view of them will not be
blocked.
Chief King says the
Traffic Committee will
soon be looking into the
whole problem of traffic
flow around the schools.
While parents with good
intentions are trying to
prevent their children
from getting wet and
cold, they may also be
presenting them with the
opportunity to get
seriously injured by a
car, he says.
OTHER POLICE
NEWS
The Goderich police
Force had a slow. week in
comparison with last
week and were able to
clear up several crimes.
An area man was
arrested and charged for
a- break-in at the Fina
station on Bayfield Road
and the theft of a Corvette
from that station.
A local person was
arrested and charged for
the theft of a Stewart
Aluminum truck from 207
Huron Road. The truck
was recovered on County
Road 31.
Two local men were
charged with mischief for
opening up two fire
hydrants last week. In the
past couple of weeks,
several fire hydrants
have been turned on but
Chief King points out that
the two men charged are
mot necessarily
responsible for all of
them.
Two- juveniles, who
were in town recently
from London, were
checked out by a
Goderich police officer
and admitted tostealing
a car in London. The car
was later recovered at St.

police officers had oc-
cassion to try and pull
over a vehicle in town.
This resulted in a high
speed chase north on
Highway 21. Using the
new police com-
munications system, the
O.P.P. were contacted
and set .up a road block at
Nile. The speeding
vehicle got around the
road block and was later
stopped by O.P.P. in
Dungannon. The driver, a
man from New Brun-
swick, was charged with
several traffic offences.
At this time of year, the
police receive many
reports of stolen bicycles.
Chief King says the
bicycles are usually
stolen for transportation
reasons and recovered
within a few days. There
are still several un-
claimed bicycles at the
police station.
The Goderich police
are stepping up their
patrols because of the
approaching date of
Hallowe'en. Chief King
says pranks that break
the law (and most pranks
do), will not be allowed.
Charges of assault can be
laid against persons
throwing eggs at other
persons and charges of
wilful damage can be laid
against persons throwing
ggs at houses and other
bjects. Soaping windows
an also get some people
n trouble, says the Chief.
Plans for constructing
wo new concrete block
ells in the Goderich
Police Station will soon
be underway, subject to,
approval from the
building committee and
town council.
