As students head back to school across Los Angeles, our team at Hakakian Law Group wants to remind families to keep safety top of mind. A little preparation can go a long way in preventing pedestrian accidents, bike crashes, and other dangerous situations on the way to and from campus.
Walking to school? Encourage kids to use sidewalks, cross at marked crosswalks, and make eye contact with drivers before stepping into the street.
Riding a bike? A properly fitted helmet is essential. Make sure students ride with traffic, stop fully before crossing, and choose routes with lighter traffic whenever possible.
Taking the bus? Students should stand back from the curb, wait for the bus to stop completely, and avoid walking behind or in front of the bus unless the driver clearly signals.
Getting dropped off? Follow school zone speed limits and drop-off procedures carefully. Never pass a bus that is loading or unloading children.
Teen drivers? Remind them to stay focused, put devices away, follow speed limits, and ensure everyone is buckled up.
