Title: Nearly right
Post by: BazaJT on 09 July 2015, 18:16:48

Walking home from work tonight I was catching up with a man,woman and a young girl of about 8 or 9.Man says to little girl"Come on then we'll cross the road".Woman then says to girl "Hold daddies hand"Man then says to girl"Right what do you do?"Girl replies"Stop look and listen" At this I thought at least some people are trying to teach their kids road sense.They so nearly got it right as the only fly in the ointment was that they were crossing between the only two cars parked at the roadside for about a quarter of a mile in either direction!!

Look Left
Look Right Again
If all clear walk quickly across

Yep,same for me too.Seems sadly absent these days though.At least this couple were going in the right direction getting girl to hold adults hand and stopping at kerb etc.Just a shame they were doing so between two parked cars when there was masses of room before and after they'd got to their crossing point!
