National Ambulance also called for adherence to health and safety guidelines, and urged motorists to drive safely and be patient, as well as adhering to the speed limits and being extra cautious in school zones, especially around children going in and out of cars and buses. It also reminded people of the importance of planning their journey ahead and leaving home early to avoid expected traffic delays and the need to rush, which may result in traffic violations and accidents.
The National Ambulance recommended public safety tips to contribute to a safe return to schools and keeping everyone safe, such as reminding children to adhere to preventive measures and providing them with masks; planning ahead and leaving home early to avoid traffic delays; drive safely and adhering to the speed limit; adhering to the speed limit in school zones, always giving children the right-of-way, watching out for school buses and giving them the right-of-way; halting during the boarding/unloading of students; and avoiding double parking while ensuring children reach the school gate safely without having them walk between cars.
