safety, but particularly to North j'
Carolina parents. i; i
"Pending the fulfillment of our
hope of. having safety taught in
every school in North Carolina,
the responsibility' for teaching our
children safety habits must lie
chiefly with their parents," said
Hocutt.
The safety director pointed out
that the 21 traffic fatality victims
under 15 years of age included
nine who were crossing or play
ing in the street or roadway, one
who skated in front of a car, one
bicyclist who disregarded a stop
sign, and one child on a sled.
"If parents expect their children
to walk, play, . skate and ride bi
cycles in a safe manner, they must
take it upon themselves to im
press their children with the im
portance of safe practices and the
dangers of wrong practices," Ho
cutt said. . .
"Jf your child rides a bicycle,
see that he or she learns safe
cycling habits, preferably by join
ing a Bicycle Club, if there is one
in your community ; if your child
owns skates, teach him not to
skate in the street; and, above all,
see that your child doesn't play
in the street, that he learns to
look before crossing the street or. "It is better that your child
road, and that he cultivates safe )carns the cssons o safcty through
pedestrian habits. teaching, not through experience."
