Stop! Take 3 To See™

Visit Stop! Take 3 To See

Let's each do our part to keep kids, and ourselves, safe on and around neighborhood streets this summer. Visit Stop! Take 3 To See

Last day of school at the elementary school in our neighborhood. Here are the results of Stop Sign survey at 4-Way Stop with Marked Crosswalks:

Without Crossing Guards Present:

# of vehicles = 128
# of vehicles coming to a complete stop = 31

That's a 24% compliance rate

With Crossing Guards Present:

# of vehicles = 124
# of vehicles coming to a complete stop = 49

That's a 40% compliance rate

Let's not fail our kids and ourselves!

The Steps to Correctly Observe a Stop Are:

Stop! Take 3 To See™

1. Come to a full and complete stop - wheels completely still.
2. Look left. Look right. Look left again to make sure all is clear before proceeding.
3. Look for pedestrians/bicyclists and wave them through until they are safely across the street before proceeding.

Let's all follow the speed limit as well, and adjust downward in the presence of kids at play, pedestrians, and cyclists. 

It's About Kids! It's About Safety! It's About Caring! It's About Time!™
