6. 3.In Car Safety
Hi Kids - I want to tell you
how to stay safe in the
car:
When travelling in the
car, make sure you
always wear your seat
belt. A seat belt helps
keep you safe when the
car stops suddenly.

7. 3.In Car Safety
Never stand between the two front seats
when the car is moving because if there is a
crash you will be thrown forwards and this
could cause injury to yourself and other
passengers.

8. 3.In Car Safety
• When the car is moving, do not shout at,
• or fight with your brothers and sisters,
• or do anything else that may distract the
driver.
• This could cause the driver to crash.

9. 4.Is my bicycle safe?
• Before you go out on your bicycle,
make sure everything is in good working
order. Always take the time to check that
the brakes and lights are working properly
and that the reflectors are clean.

11. 4. Is my bicycle safe?
• Too big or too small may
cause you to lose control.

12. 5.Why should I wear a
helmet?
• If you fall off your bicycle
and hit your head you could
be very seriously hurt. You
should wear a helmet every
time you ride your bicycle
because it helps protect the
brain!
• Never Ever Ride Your
Bicycle Without Wearing A
Helmet!

13. 6.Will others be able to
see me?
• It is very important that other road
users, especially drivers, can see
you when you are riding your
bicycle.
• REMEMBER! It can be difficult for
drivers to see cyclists. By wearing
bright or reflective materials it will
be easier for them to see you!!!

14. 7.Be Bright On Your Bicycle!
• Make sure your bicycle is fitted with
reflectors - usually a red rear reflector, a front
white reflector, front and rear spoke
reflectors and amber pedal reflectors.
