Traffic Rules and Road Safety

Traffic Rules

1. Traffic rules are important guidelines and regulations that help keep people safe while using roads and streets.
2. They are like a set of rules or instructions that everyone must follow to avoid accidents and make sure traffic flows smoothly.

Traffic Signals

1. Traffic signals are important devices that control the flow of traffic at intersections and road crossings.
2. They use different coloured lights to communicate instructions to drivers and pedestrians.

• Red Light: When the signal turns red, it means you must stop your vehicle.
• Green Light: When the signal turns green, it means you can go.
• Yellow Light: When the signal turns yellow, it's a warning that the light is about to change. You should slow down your vehicle and prepare to stop if it's safe to do so.

Pedestrian Signals

Traffic signals also have signals for pedestrians to safely cross the road.

1. Red Man: If the pedestrian signal shows a red man, it means you should not cross the road or intersection. Wait until the signal changes.
2. Green Man: If the pedestrian signal shows a green man, it means you can safely cross the road or intersection.
