Traffic Signal Crossing

Everyone has a role to play in making our roads safe.

Pedestrians

• Stop, look and listen before crossing, even if it is your turn to cross
• Make eye contact with drivers to ensure they see 
• Avoid distractions like using your cellphone and listening to headphones when crossing the street
• Wear reflective materials or lights when walking at night, dawn and dusk
• Jaywalking is dangerous - ensure you cross at pedestrian crossings

Drivers

• Look for pedestrians, especially when making a turn
• Do not use any handheld electronic devices when driving; always give the road your full attention
• Pedestrians are hard to see at night, dawn and dusk - be extra vigilant
• Drive within the posted speed limits and adjust according to weather and traffic conditions
