The Duluth Police Department urges drivers to be especially careful on Thursday as our children head to school for their first day back. Please help ensure our children’s safety while they are commuting to and from school. Slow down, obey the speed limit, stop for flashing school bus lights, watch for children, stop for children in cross walks, and obey directions from crossing guards. Watch out for children at intersections, between parked cars, and around school buses
Parents, remind Children waiting at bus stops to:
---Stay out of the street
---Pay attention to traffic to avoid potential hazards
---Wait until the school bus comes to a complete stop and has its emergency lights flashing and stop arm extended before moving toward the bus
---Look left, right, and back to the left before crossing any street to board a stopped bus
Help make this a safe start to a great school year!
