Drive Carefully Last year in Ontario 194 child-. ren were.. killed. and 12,000 injured in traffic accidents ... 95 of the children were pedestrians 36 were riding bicycles and others were in motor. vehicles. In announcing these figures,. Minister of Transportation and Communications John R. Rhodes reminded all motorists that the opening of a new school year pres- ents particular hazards. "The first days. back a.t school are an exciting time for young- srers," 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 ro, :e your children have to follow to get to school and discuss any particular hazards with them. And find out what they are learning about traf- fic 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'morn- ent does not result in tragedy."
