Parents
The Children's Traffic Club has been set up to help parents and carers
teach their 3 to 4 year old children basic road safety skills.
Did you know?
- Approximately 3090 children are killed or seriously injured on Britain’s
roads
every year.
- 3 in 4 of those accidents occur whilst a child is out walking or cycling
- Research shows that child safety seats reduce the risk of fatal injury
by 71 percent for infants less than one year of age and 54 percent for toddlers
between the ages
of 1 and 4.
- In 2007, 526 children were killed or seriously injured whilst travelling
in vehicles. The proper use of child car restraints would have prevented or
lessened the severity of these injuries
- The number of children under 12 injured in car accidents in Great Britain
during 2007 fell by more than 1,000 in the first full year since the introduction
of the new car seat law in September 2006.
For over 15 years the Club has worked! Parents like it because it's easy
to use and children love it because it's fun - the best way for any child
to learn! It saves lives!
"… She just loved it - it made it so easy for me to teach her
road safety!"
