Good morning everyone!

My name is [Your Name], and I am here today to talk to you about something very important – road safety. I am competing to become a road safety officer, and I want to share with you some important tips to help keep us all safe on the roads.

Firstly, it is crucial to always use the sidewalks or footpaths when walking. Walking on the road can be very dangerous because cars and other vehicles might not see us. So, let’s remember to use the sidewalks and stay away from the road as much as possible.

When we need to cross the road, we must always use the pedestrian crossings. These crossings have special markings and traffic lights to help us cross safely. We should wait for the green light or the walking person symbol before we start crossing. It’s important to look both ways before crossing, even if the light is green, to make sure no cars are coming.

Sometimes, we might need to cross the road where there is no pedestrian crossing. In such cases, we should find a safe place to cross, away from parked cars or bends in the road. We should always look left, right, and left again before crossing. If we see any cars coming, we must wait until it is safe to cross.

Another important thing to remember is to always hold an adult’s hand when crossing the road. This is because adults can help us make sure it is safe to cross and protect us from any danger.

When we are riding our bicycles or scooters, we should always wear a helmet. Helmets protect our heads and keep us safe if we fall off our bikes. It’s also important to ride on the correct side of the road, just like cars do. We should always follow the traffic rules and signals, just like we do when we are walking.

Lastly, we should never play near the road. Roads are for cars and other vehicles, and it’s not safe for us to play there. We should find a safe place, like a park or a playground, to have fun and play with our friends.

Remember, road safety is everyone’s responsibility. By following these simple rules, we can all help make our roads safer for everyone. Let’s be responsible and always stay safe when we are near the roads.

Thank you for listening, and I hope you all remember these important road safety tips!
