Roads : Heavy heart when see heavy vehicles

I hv ever be in the outlying industrial Jurong Area and even all over where the power of a heavy vehicle just "wheeling" by, say the bus-stop is so tremendous, so be on the look-out and not cross except at authorised traffic lights ...

Parents can also monitor or fetch their children taking public transport from various connecting points

Drivers take note : Children Crossing Ahead

Children should stick to tested routes and not try different connecting points, till they r truly able to handle new routes and differing road situations.

Full-scale Parent-Child Joint Public Transport Exercise ...

Many joint practices recommended but still can fetch child to school by car till her or his paces big enough, till tall enough to be clearly seen by bigger vehicles. Combination of Mass Rapid Transit Trains and buses could be most optimal. Choose connecting bus-stops for their safety considerations that is where it is easier to cross roads. Of course if it not too packed so boarding and alighting can be less problematic, it would be better. If connecting from bus interchanges or terminals, great care must be exercised to cross at the right places, as it is also a danger and an offence to be in unauthorised areas of the interchange ...

China, (Beijing, others): Dogs used to sniff out fireworks on trains.

Works ... to make it safer ...

Beware goods on vehicles coz they may not act good : case of fatallity when plank fell on student in USA

Un( and)loading bays : Do not go there ...

U r not good(s) nor cargo, so do not go where there r less cars than heavy vehicles who cannot see the light puny humankind, of which all of us r, relatively speaking.

Can only look a while at the driver inside the vehicle and communicate intentions clearly to one another, then look up for all the traffic around.

Do visualise how to act when u encounter such situations. But when there, look, not same as visualising, ie stop thinking but actually acting safe!
