*At times, we have a tendency of not noticing the road because children appear to be small. In this case, you should look in between vehicles where you are parked if there is some kid standing because you might run over their feet.
*You should look carefully if there are children walking or riding vehicles when backing out of your driveway or when you are about to exit your garage. For sure, you don’t want to hit them when backing.
*You should be alert, and it would be best if you will slow down when you are driving through a school zone. You must check if there are children on the streets in cases that there are no sidewalks. And also be cautious with those children waiting or playing next to the bus stop.

*Always drive carefully through areas where children might run out on foot or on a bicycle from the back of a parked car. A child usually reacts to situations far different from an adult. A child sometimes sees a car approaching will make him run faster across the street rather than staying on the sidewalk as an adult would do. 
*You should keep an eye out for children playing on the sidewalk or along the road. Also take note that children’s eyesight and hearing are still developing that they cannot easily sense a moving car. A number of children might have been injured running right into the sides of vehicles.
*You should also look for flashing signals that are commonly used by school buses to warn drivers. A flashing yellow signal only means a plan to stop while a flashing red one means that the bus is on the process of loading and unloading children. In this way, the drivers must stop their vehicles and move just when the red lights stop flashing and the bus starts moving. There are some states, which have laws requiring cars to stop until the school bus has completed loading and unloading passengers.
*You should park it on the way where you don’t have to look behind and risk backing when parking your car. Also, look around, between and under you car because some children may hide in these places before driving
*You must practice the same alertness in parking lots. The presence of kids, buses, and cars in school parking lots could cause lots of accident in the road. So, better watch out for it. And lastly, never ever honk at the children.
