The road can be a dangerous place. There are lots of cars moving quickly and they might not see you. I want you to be really careful when you are around cars on the road, in the driveway or a car park. It's important to stay close to an adult so they can help keep you safe.

When you are in the car, you can keep yourself safe by wearing your seatbelt. Wearing your helmet will also keep you safe on your bike or scooter. There's lots of stuff here to teach you how to stay OK on the road.
