State patrol encourages ‘walk this way’ More than 30 percent of all pedestrian fatalities and injuries in Georgia in 1993 involved children 14 years of age and under, according to the Georgia State Patrol. Officials at AAA Auto Club South urge motorists to remember that now school is out of session for the summer, to be aware of the increase in numbers of children playing near or on roadways. "Both parents and motorists need to do their part to protect our children during these summer months," said Randy Bly, director of traffic safety for AAA Auto Club South. Parents can do their part in keeping their children safe by teaching, demonstrating and practicing the "Seven Tips for Safe Walking." "Remember that children imitate both safe and unsafe behaviors, so parents need to set a positive example," Bly said. The Seven Tips for Safe Walking include: 1. Keep from between parked cars. Many children are struck each year in non-intersection accidents when they suddenly enter the roadway from between parked cars. 2. Be extra alert in bad weather. Cars cannot stop as fast on wet pavement, or vehicles may skid. Because motorists and pedestrians tend to hurry to escape the bad weather, they may not be paying close attention to their surroundings. Motorists and pedestrians need to be extra alert when the weather is bad. 3. Be seen at night.
