01:25SAFETY ON ROAD Accidents occur on roads when we do not follow
01:30traffic rules. Some tips to keep ourselves safe on roads are
01:37walk on footpaths, use zebra crossings to cross the road, always hold an elder's hand
01:47while crossing the road. Before crossing the road, make sure that it is safe to cross by
01:54looking to the right, then to the left and then again to the right.
02:00TRAFFIC LIGHTS Traffic signals are meant for our safety when
02:05we are on roads. We should always follow them. The red light at the top of the signal tells
02:12vehicles to stop. The green light at the bottom signals vehicles to move and the yellow light
02:21in the middle tells vehicles to wait. Pedestrians crossing the road must do so when the traffic
02:29lights are red.
