Normally at this time of year, students are heading back to the classroom and roads free up of kids running around and playing outside, but this year is going to be a little bit different. With most kids learning from home and recess now being held in the streets, the difference between the volume of kids on the streets from summer to fall will seem very small.
When you are driving through the streets of your community it will be incumbent on you to make sure you are driving safely to avoid causing any Connecticut pedestrian accident with a child who may be home learning on their computer.
Whether you’re out for a quick lunch break or your job requires you to be on the road you’ll want to take extra care to avoid children who are playing in the streets or even in their front yards as toys have a tendency to find the road and right behind a toy is generally a child who is running after it to “save” it.
Following posted speed limit signs is the best way to avoid this type of accident and keep kids in your neighborhood safe.
Here at CT Injury Lawyers we’re wishing all our kids and families a safe and happy return to school this fall, even if it looks a little bit different than in previous years.
