Why does a driver need extra caution near a school at arrival or dismissal time?
Correct answer: Children may dart out and misjudge a car’s speed or distance.
Why
Watch sidewalks, crossings and gaps between parked vehicles. Children may not see an approaching vehicle, judge its speed correctly or act predictably. Choose a speed and following space that let you respond early. Do not assume a child will remain at the curb just because they appeared to look toward traffic.
