The hidden driveway

Parked cars hide part of a driveway and the road. What gives you the clearest view before crossing?

Choose one answerCross through the narrow gap between carsMove to a clearer crossing place and check againCross if you cannot hear an engine

Read all explanations

Cross through the narrow gap between cars: The vehicles can hide you from drivers and hide moving traffic from you.

Move to a clearer crossing place and check again: A clear view works both ways: you see traffic and drivers have a better chance to see you.

Cross if you cannot hear an engine: Listening helps, but quiet vehicles and background noise make a clear view essential too.

The dim walk home

It will be dim on the walk home. Which choice helps drivers notice you sooner?

Choose one answerUse bright clothing or reflective detailsWear only dark colours because streetlights are enoughHold up a phone screen while walking

Read all explanations

Use bright clothing or reflective details: That helps you stand out in reduced visibility. You still choose safe places and check traffic.

Wear only dark colours because streetlights are enough: Do not rely on streetlights alone. Brighter and reflective details can make you easier to notice.

Hold up a phone screen while walking: A phone can take your attention from traffic and is not a substitute for visible clothing or reflective details.

Two ways to school

One route is shorter but has a blind bend. Another has clearer crossings. How should you learn which route to use?

Choose one answerAlways choose the shortest routeWalk the options with a responsible adult and notice risky pointsCopy whichever route another child takes

Read all explanations

Always choose the shortest route: Shortest does not automatically mean safer. Visibility and crossing places matter.

Walk the options with a responsible adult and notice risky points: Practising together helps you identify crossings, junctions and places with poor visibility.

Copy whichever route another child takes: Another person's choice does not replace planning your own route with a responsible adult.

Rain on the crossing

Rain makes the scene harder to see. What should change in your decision?

Choose one answerNothing—the crossing markings guarantee safetyAllow more time, focus fully and cross only when you can confirm it is safeRun so you spend less time on the road

Read all explanations

Nothing—the crossing markings guarantee safety: Markings do not remove reduced visibility. Pause and assess what you can actually see.

Allow more time, focus fully and cross only when you can confirm it is safe: Good. Reduced visibility calls for more patience and a clear safety check.

Run so you spend less time on the road: Rushing reduces the time you have to observe and react. Wait for a safe opportunity.
