Description

Following a brief introduction into the work of the fire and ambulance service, a small girl is seen playing in the street. As she runs into the road to retrieve her ball she is saved from being run down by a passing policeman who then shows her safe areas for playing - play streets, the playground and park. The policeman then comes to the girl's school to give a talk on road safety - illustrated with dramatised accidents on the streets.
