WEYBURN — Weyburn Police Service (WPS) wants to reminds motorists that back to school means more children walking and biking on our roads.
Younger children often have little experience with traffic and lack the skills to negotiate traffic safely. Motorists need to take special care while driving.
WPS asks that you help our children arrive safely at school by following these important rules:
- Be aware of school zone signs.
- Be ready to stop at all times, children do not always notice oncoming traffic.
- Always try to make eye contact with children waiting to cross the road.
- Be patient and wait for children to complete their crossing before proceeding.
- Stop when directed to do so by a crossing guard.
