Description |
This is a police information film set in Salford. A school in a quiet country lane in Broughton-in-Furness is contrasted with a school in the busy industrial area of Broughton in Salford. Here, a boy runs into the street, is knocked down by a car and taken to hospital by ambulance. The following sequences show a policewoman teaching children their kerb drill; a young girl helping an absent-minded man to cross the road; older children helping younger children to cross; a teacher and pupils in a playground learning road safety; and finally a sequence showing where it is safe to play, which features children's games. |
