Seminole CountySheriff OfficeCarls Safe CrossingCampaign
Did You KnowBicycle safety has become a big
topic around our offices. Children aretaught how to ride a bicycle but never taught safety while riding their bikes.Many times students are involved innear misses because they dont stopand think prior to entering theroadway. Reassuring that the studentsknow these safety tips and makingsure they use a bicycle helmet isdetrimental in keeping them safe.Besides, its the law that all studentsup to age 16 wear a bicycle helmeteach and every time they get ready toride. Please help support us on thisvery important issue.
